Rules for Creating Job Names

Follow these rules when creating job names:

• The job name must contain 1 to 8 characters.
• The first character must be a letter or national character ($, #, @); subsequent characters can be digits.
• Do not use blanks or other special characters.

Note: A jobname is not the same as a job identifier, which is described later in this chapter.
