The first one i guess will yield Unpredictable results ie, if we are coding an exec aswell as jobcard with time=(0,0)

if we are coding with region=(0,0) it will take the maximum memory accordingly for a job or for a step where ever its coded

I don't think you can code region=(0,0). It doesn't seems to be correct syntax!

Well, isn't it a good idea to run a job with time=(0,0) and find out what happens?

HI,

Syntactically coding REGION(0,0) should be giving a JCL error....for Format.

Theoritically speaking coding TIME(0,0) should abend a JCl with S322.

But the JCl went thru fine.
What must be the reason??

Hi Shreevamsi,

Once you check your joblog whether TIme parameter overridden or not?

If it is overridden then it wont abend with S322.

I agree with "Parikshit chudasma" for syntax for REGION Param..

First of All, Would like to know, why do code the Such unexpected things code Zeroes..

Is it a interview Question.. If yes, u r reply should be "Never explored that options which will give incorrect results"

Second thing is that, code the same in JCL and Test it in Test environment and see the unpreditable results and let us know in Forum...

Please post u r queries in the forum, after expermenting atleaset once...

Cheers
Sri

Hi all

Both are working fine aganist our theoratical concept in my shop

I guess if we go with time=(0,0) or region=0k it will take the system installation value .
