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, HCL Workload Automation for Z dynamically allocates the specified library when required.

HCL Workload Automation for Z 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
