Job Management Manager DCL Commands › SCHEDULE> › RELEASE › Parameter

Parameter

job_specifier

The name or number of the job that you want to release.

For example:

SCHEDULE> RELEASE MYJOB
SCHEDULE> RELEASE 123

The job specifier is required, unless you use the /GROUP or /TYPE qualifier. If you omit the job specifier, the manager prompts you for it. However, if you specify /GROUP or /TYPE, the manager does not prompt for the job specifier. The following example releases all of your jobs that belong to group WEEKLY and type FISCAL:

SCHEDULE> RELEASE /GROUP=WEEKLY/TYPE=FISCAL

To release a job belonging to another user, you must refer to the job by name and add the =username specifier to the job’s name. For example:

SCHEDULE> RELEASE THISJOB=DOE

To release a job on a remote node, add the node name to the job name or number, or user the /SERVER= qualifier. For example:

SCHEDULE> RELEASE NODE1::MYJOB
SCHEDULE> RELEASE NODE1::321
SCHEDULE> RELEASE MYJOB/SERVER=NODE1

You can use wildcard characters to refer to job name, username, group name, and type name. The following command releases all jobs beginning with the letter B that are in any GROUP beginning with W and owned by users whose name begins with D:

SCHEDULE> RELEASE B*/GROUP=W*/USER_NAME=D*
