Command Definition F-K
JOB
For information on the guidelines for these priority queues, refer to the TUNE
command in this chapter.
inputpriority or HIPRI Determines the input priority of the job. The inputpriority parameter
is the relative input priority used in checking against access restrictions
imposed by the jobfence. The inputpriority parameter takes effect at logon
time and must be from 1 (lowest priority) to 13 (highest priority). If you
supply a value less than or equal to the current jobfence set by the system
operator, the job is denied access. Default is 8.
The HIPRI option is used for two different purposes when logging on. It
can be used to override the system jobfence, or it can be used to override
the job limit. When using the HIPRI option to override the jobfence, the
system first checks to see if you have system manager (SM) or system
operator (OP) capability. If you have either of these capabilities, you are
logged on and your INPRI defaults to the system's jobfence and execution
limit. If you do not have either of these capabilities, the system attempts to
log you on using INPRI=13 and succeeds if the jobfence is 12 or less, and if
the job limit is not exceeded. In attempting to override the job limit (to log
on after the maximum number of jobs set by the operator has been
reached), you can specify HIPRI, but to do so you must have either SM or
OP capability. The system does not override the job limit automatically.
Use of the HIPRI option without SM or OP capability causes the following
warning to be displayed:
MUST HAVE 'SM' OR 'OP' CAP. TO SPECIFY HIPRI,
MAXIMUM INPRI OF 13 IS USED (CIWARN 1460)
RESTART Request to restart a spooled job that has been interrupted by the system
termination/restart. This parameter takes effect automatically when the
system is subsequently restarted with the START RECOVERY option. The
effect is to resubmit the job in its original form.
This parameter applies only to jobs initiated on spooled input devices. It is
ignored for other jobs. Default is that spooled jobs are not restarted after
system termination/restart.
device Class name or logical device number (ldev) of the device to receive listing
output. You cannot specify a magnetic tape unit. If the parameter is not a
valid LDEV or class name, an error is generated. Default is defined in the
system configuration.
NOTE Nonshareable device (ND) file access capability is required in order to use
this parameter.
outputpriority The output priority for job list file, if destined for spooled line printer. This
parameter is used to select the next spooled device file (on disk) for output,
from among all those contending for a specific printer. Must be a value
from 1 (lowest priority) to 13 (highest priority). When outputpriority is 1,
output is always deferred. To have output printed from disk, use an
outputpriority of 2 or greater.
