SUBMIT Command

The SUBMIT top line command modifies and expedites the process of job submission for jobs that already reside in the queues. This processing 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 when workload balancing is being used.

This command has the following format:

SUBMIT[,JOB=jobnumber][,EXPRESS=YES]

JOB

Specifies the CA 7 job number of the job whose requirements you want to post as satisfied.

Limits: 1 to 4 numeric characters

EXPRESS

(Optional) Indicates to place the job ahead of all other jobs (those jobs 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 that is flagged as an express job.

Note: If you specify no keywords, CA WA CA 7 Edition job submission is activated. If you use CA WA Restart Option, it verifies whether the interface is still active. If the interface is not active, then a WTOR is issued. CA WA CA 7 Edition is in a wait state until the operator replies.
