How Tasks Work: Pre-Spool

When you start the started task on each operating system at your site, each started task should remain active until the operating system on which it is running is brought down.

The started task obtains control whenever a data set is opened or closed by a job. The started task first checks to see whether the SYSOUT is a SYSOUT that it is to control.
