Then, the easiest way to guarantee N jobs running concurrently is going
back to JES2 managed jobclasses and start N initiators. The N jobs will

What does your contract say?
If there's nothing in it about "N" jobs, then tell them you are going to
enforce it.
If there is, or it's ambiguous, you're out of luck.

You need to convince them (if you can) that performance experts know better.

Because sometimes the client says that they want to see n number of jobs in a
certain class running.
We know that it might not be the best thing, but the client is always right.

Hi,
I have an issue open with CA.
I would like to:

Not to mention the small matter of big-endian versus little-endian.

Bottom like: you can't, directly. We always use a COBOL program to read
the data with packed fields, write out an equivalent with USAGE IS
DISPLAY to convert from packed to normal "print", then ftp that
converted file using ASCII conversion.
One problem is that the z's "packed decimal" simply does

Not if he's running under TSO. He needs to use CONSOLE.

As I mentioned earlier,
1) first you need to get LCU number and the number of volume which he has
formatted.
2) Then you should go to IODF panel and define control unit and then map
that control unit with the LCU number given by storage admin.
3) once you map it, then you need to define the volume

That's ambiguous; both System Rexx and TSO are part of z/OS, but they
are different environments. For TSO you use the CONSOLE command.
