> IBM has already generously done that chore for IEBGENER. Touché. How about "any program capable of copying xSAM to xSAM plus INTRDR"? IEBGENER is a good shorthand.
My reading was that there was no MODIFY involved with $SUBMIT. It *is* a JES2 command as I read things. It is I think the answer to what I was looking for with my OP "is there a JES2 command to submit a job?" I chose to go with the RDR proc because it looked a little simpler. Footnote: Little did I know. What a PITA RDR turned out to be, at least on my particular LPAR. I had to override RECFM, LRECL, BLKSIZE, UNIT, VOL and DISP (as well as DSN of course). That made my $TA command too long for the MVS console. I had to shorten my DSN and member names a little to get it to fit.

IBM has already generously done that chore for IEBGENER. Apparently: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.4.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r4.e0za100/ch1jes2_24_disk.htm the disk writer does nothing but wait until a MODIFY command tells it to SUBMIT a job. Is that better than SUBMITting immediately and quitting? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
