Job initiation

The system checks the authority to some objects when a job is started.

When you start a job on the system, objects are associated with the job, such as an output queue, a job description, and the libraries on the library list. Authority to some of these objects is checked before the job is allowed to start, while authority to other objects is checked after the job starts. Inadequate authority might cause errors or may cause the job to end.

Objects that are part of the job structure for a job can be specified in the job description, the user profile, and on the Submit Job (SBMJOB) command for a batch job.
