Submit/release data set (EQQSUDS)

The submit/release data set is device dependent and must have only a primary space allocation. Do not allocate any secondary space. The data set is formatted the first time it is used. Each time you use the data set, IBM Z Workload Scheduler keeps a record of where to start. When the last track of the data set is written, IBM Z Workload Scheduler starts writing on the first track again.

Two cylinders are enough at most installations.

Note:
  1. The first time IBM Z Workload Scheduler is started with a newly allocated submit/release data set, an SD37 error occurs when it formats the data set. Expect this, do not treat it as an error.
  2. Do not move IBM Z Workload Scheduler submit/release data sets once they are allocated. They contain device-dependent information and cannot be copied from one device type to another, or moved on the same volume. A submit/release data set that is moved will be re-initialized. This causes all information in the data set to be lost. If you have DFHSM or a similar product installed, define IBM Z Workload Scheduler submit/release data sets so that they are not migrated or moved.
