Cross-Posted to IBM-Main and JES2-L lists

A job's JES2 joblog starts with a date message and (presuming RACF) message 
IRR010I. For example:

10.37.42 J0012345 ---- TUESDAY,   01 MARCH 2016 ----
10.37.42 J0012345  IRR010I USERID JOHNDOE  IS ASSIGNED TO THIS JOB.



Next messages are RACF's last access message (ICH70001I) and JES2's 
handover-to-the-initiator message ($HASP373).




The above mentioned messages 1 & 2 document when the job was submitted, 
messages ICH70001I and especially $HASP373 document when the job was selected 
by an initiator, i.e. when execution began.


I'd be interested to understand *when* the first two messages are written, i.e. 
what can I conclude from their timestamps? In what phase of JES processing are 
they written?



I assume the internal reader does not parse the JOB statement (nor any JCL 
other statement), so it does not know if there is a USER= keyword for this job. 
Therefore JES2 Conversion would be the first process able to call RACF (well, 
SAF) and pass it the userid from the USER= parameter or the userid inherited 
from the submitter. The result being documentes as IRR010I.


Reader or Conversion processing could write the date message, since that is 
independent of any JCL or JECL statement content.



Some insight anyone?
