Hi Mainframe Gurus, 

Perhaps you can help a Lowly trainee out.  

I have a situation where I want to submit 12 batch jobs in order, with an MVS 
command to bring a volume online between jobs 2 and 3. 

I could ask Ops Support to use the automation product to set up some rules for 
this,  however as a training exercise I was looking to do it without using 
Control. 

I can get the jobs to submit in the correct order by using the INTRDR,  but 
this does not wait untill one job is finished before the next starts. 

Ideally I would also like to trap the return code of the previous job and use 
this to conditionally submit the following job or halt the process. 

Can you offer any advice on the best method/tools to do this and point me in 
the direction of the appropriate doccumentation. 

Cheers and regards,
