Specifying the priority for the job queue

To specify the order in which the job queues are processed by the subsystem, use the character-based interface.

Command: Add Job Queue Entry ( ADDJOBQE)

The parameters on this command specify:

  • Number of jobs that can be active at the same time on this job queue (MAXACT)
  • In what order the subsystem handles work from this job queue (SEQNBR)
  • How many jobs can be active at one time for each of nine levels of priority (MAXPTYn) (n=1 through 9)
