JOBS Information Subtask Setup

The JOBS subtask collects job summary information displayed by the JOBSUM and LISTINP display commands. The task starts automatically when the Main Services Address Space initializes. This task must be active or the JOBSUM and LISTINP display commands do not display any information. The information collected by the JOBS task improves the performance of the JJOBQUE, JHELDQUE, and JOUTQUE display commands.

When the user issues a JOBSUM display command, the information is obtained from the Main Services Address Space. Because the JOBS subtask periodically saves the job summary information, the time it takes to collect the information is greatly reduced.
