hi,
pls clear my question.
In cobol, how to submit one job from another job

[Kalicharan]

Hi,

With Internal Reader - INTRDR, u can submit one job from another

Internal reader routines allow TSO jobs or application programs(like COBOL) to submit job streams to JES3 using output data sets. When a job stream enters the system, data management assigns the data sets directly to an internal reader. If an internal reader is not available, the system dynamically creates one. When JES3 schedules the internal reader, input service can proceed to process the data set as an input stream.

As mentioned, an application program can create a job and pass it to the JES3 internal reader. To pass the job to the internal reader, the program must write the job to a data set for which SYSOUT=(class,INTRDR) has been specified. The internal reader reads the job, then gives it to JES3 where the job is processed like other reader-submitted jobs.

If the submitter of an internal reader job is either a TSO user or has an associated TSO userid, the TSO userid will be propagated to the submitted job.

To display a list of all the internal readers in the system at any one time, issue the *INQUIRY,A,D=INTRDR command.
As the workload slows, input service will automatically terminate internal readers when they are no longer required.
The operator can also stop the internal reader by issuing a *CANCEL,INTRDR or a *CANCEL,J=jobno command


Thanks
