IN a JCL if we give :
| Code: |
//* this is comment
|
obviously it will considered as comments...
But in many cases I have seen this :
| Code: |
//*+JTS RELEASE DATE=+001,TIME=05:15
|
and similar other statements where even though the third position of JCL has a * still that line is being executed, in this case, the job is held in que until it reaches that time.
So I want to know what's this special case in JCL. I have googled and not found any answers for this.
Thanks |

| Check the JCL Reference manual (link at the top of the page) for the JES3 command format. This only applies if your site uses JES3, not JES2. |

There's at least one specific override that can be passed as a 'comment' card in JES2 that I'm aware of.
.. oh! and the line isn't executed.

I faintly remember seeing something like this JCL at our shop, in which the statements with comments
//*+
were processed by scheduling system(which runs on JES2)
I could be totally wrong. :S |
