One additional thing: go to the CBTTAPE.ORG site and find a program named COMMAND. This will allow you to submit a separate job, whereever you wish in the stream, to issue the VARY command to bring that
odd volume online.

Have the last step of a job submit the next one. Similar to:
//SUBMIT EXEC PGM=IEBGENER,COND=...
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR)
//SYSUT1 DD ...dsn with next job's JCL

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.
