I meant job scheduling software. Are you nit picking, or did
you really not know what I was referring to?

And yes, all production jobs usually are scheduled through the
software.  Of course rules are made to be broken and there are
always exceptions.  We have some "end users" that submit jobs
that are considered production.  Obviously they don't get the
benefit of job scheduling software to automatically check return
codes etc. and kick off subsequent jobs.  But we do have ThruPut
Manager that "emulates" the Mellon Bank JES2 mods that include
/*BEFORE and /*AFTER, and people do make use of that.
