Question

Suppose I have seven jobs to do, but I want to hold one than how can I do this?

Answer 1

It's a simple process to hold one job among available jobs. There is a predefined set of rules for that. According to JCL's predefined rules for jobs, there is a keyword in each job. We can hold a job for later execution and specify TYPRUN on the job statement. The TYPRUN is used to hold a job with its variable name to HOLD.

Syntax:

TYPRUN=HOLD  

Example:

For the job you want to hold

//JTP JOB (P007),'HIMANSHU' TYPRUN=HOLD,
