Hello,

Your question is not clear.

Your post is iin the Compuware Tools part of the forum. Is this related to some Compuware product?

JCL doesn't "run in the SPOOL" - jobs run in initiators/partitions.

If you post an example of what you are looking for, someone may have a suggestion.

Warning: off topic post Dick, pardon my laziness please. What is meant by "partition"? I know the OS/VS1 meaning, but iwhat does the term mean these days? I see it occasionally and throw it around by mistake myself once in a while (yesterday, in fact!) but does t have a current meaning other than in LPAR?

Hello,

May not hold for everyone's understanding, but when i use "partition" when talking about batch jobs, cics regions, databases, etc, i use partition and initiator as the same resource (an initiator).

As Bill mentions, VSE is quite alive and well icon_smile.gif

Quite a few years ago IBM was pushing hard for VSE clients to upgrade to "mvs". Of course, it made little $ sense as everything cost more, so the clients largely said "no thanks" (or something stronger icon_wink.gif ). These days, i believe IBM would rather have the vse clients than lose them to unix or windows (just imho - wouldn't even think to speak for IBM).
