In this day and age, it's best to avoid JECL altogether when possible.

As of z/OS 1.4, JES2 finally supports the XMIT JCL statement.


So what are the practical advantages of using

//XMITJC JOB...
//  XMIT DEST=node
//REALJOB JOB ..

vs.

//XMITJC JOB...
/*XMIT node
//REALJOB JOB ..
..
..

Allows you to send jobs to non-ZOS systems (such as DOS/POWER) since everything from the "// XMIT" is non-parsed data up to the end-of-data delimiter. With /*XMIT I think it is still parsed and the routed. Thus to send to a DOS/POWER system, you need to go with IEBGENER to INTRDR with a routing of Nx to immediately get it sent to the NJE Job Queue without parsing.
