Defining jobs
Typically, you define jobs in the concatenated libraries referenced by EQQJBLIB or with the job-library-read exit (EQQUX002). To define operations whose jobs are located outside of both EQQJBLIB and EQQUX002, you are provided with the JOBLIBRARY user field. If you set this user field, IBM® Z Workload Scheduler dynamically allocates the specified library when required.
The JOBLIBRARY user field is not case-sensitive. You can set JOBLIBRARY for all jobs, except fault-tolerant non-centralized.
IBM® Z Workload
Scheduler searches
for jobs in the following order:
- JS file (EQQJSnDS)
- JCL in the job library indicated by the JOBLIBRARY operation user field
- Job-library-read exit (EQQUX002)
- JCL in the EQQJBLIB partitioned data set concatenation
