SUBMIT Command

The SUBMIT top line command modifies and expedites the process of job submission for jobs that already reside in the queues. This can be accomplished in two ways:

All outstanding input requirements for the specified jobs can be posted as satisfied.
Optionally, by specifying EXPRESS=YES, a priority can be set for a specific job, ensuring that the job is submitted ahead of other jobs also ready for submission.

Note: EXPRESS=YES has no effect if workload balancing is being used.

This command has the following format:

►►─ SUBMIT ─┬──────────────────┬─┬────────────────┬───────────────────────────►◄
            └─ ,JOB=jobnumber ─┘ └─ ,EXPRESS=YES ─┘

JOB

Specifies the CA Workload Automation SE job number of the job whose requirements are to be posted as satisfied.

Limits: 1 to 4 numeric characters

EXPRESS

(Optional) Indicates the job is to be placed ahead of all other jobs (those without EXPRESS=YES) for submission. Must be coded as shown. Not valid if workload balancing is being used. Use of EXPRESS=YES does not establish an increased execution priority for a job. Rather, it ensures that nonexpress jobs are not submitted ahead of a job flagged as an express job.

Note: If no keywords are specified, CA Workload Automation SE job submission is activated, and if CA WA Restart Option is used, it verifies that the interface is still active. If the interface is not active, then a WTOR is issued. CA Workload Automation SE is in a wait state until the operator replies.
