Accessing Job Management Manager and Entering Commands

Job Management Manager commands are divided into general commands for users and management commands for system managers. All Job Management Manager commands are available at the DCL command level, if you have privileges to use the command.

You can use the following ways to enter commands at the DCL command level:

From the DCL prompt ($)

All general Job Management Manager commands begin with the word SCHEDULE. Example:

	$ SCHEDULE SHOW JOBS

From the SCHEDULE> prompt

If you enter the command SCHEDULE at the DCL prompt and press Return, you invoke the manager as a subsystem. The SCHEDULE> prompt is displayed. You can enter Job Management Manager commands without the word SCHEDULE. Example:

	$ SCHEDULE
	SCHEDULE> SHOW JOBS

To return to the DCL prompt, use the EXIT command or press Ctrl+Z.

From the SCHEDULE Config> prompt

Enter the SCHEDULE Config command for the subset of commands used to configure Load Balance Group definitions:

$ SCHEDULE CONFIG

SCHEDULE Config> CREATE LOAD_BALANCE_GROUP GROUP1

To exit the SCHEDULE Config> prompt, type EXIT twice.

You can abbreviate the commands according to standard DCL abbreviation rules. If an abbreviation is unrecognized or ambiguous, the system displays an error message. If you omit a required parameter to a command, the manager prompts for it.

Recall of commands is supported via standard DCL rules.
