JES2 Job and Device Control II

This course discusses basic computer operations in an MVS JES2 environment. It describes the devices controlled by JES2, and describes the status of JES2 commands to control device status. The course examines the commands used to control JES2 printers, and describes the setup requirements that can be specified for a SYSOUT dataset. It describes how JES2 combines SYSOUT datasets into output groups, selects output groups for printing and provides a comprehensive examination of the JES2 Remote Job Entry (RJE) facility. The course discusses the commands used to control remote devices. It also demonstrates how to change the routing of jobs so their output will be sent to other destinations.

Job and Device Control II training covers such topics as:

Controlling JES2 Devices
JES2 Output Control
Operating a Remote Station

Learn exactly what you need to know about controlling JES2 devices. You will be able to describe how a JES2 printer selects work for printing, change the printer setup requirements to print output groups waiting for print processing, describe the default output routing for jobs entered from remote stations and explain how the user can request other routing, and the restrictions normally placed on commands entered from a remote station.

This course is designed for operators with previous JES2 experience

Description
This course discusses basic computer operations in an MVS JES2 environment. It describes the
devices controlled by JES2, explains how to determine which devices connected to the computer
system are under the control of JES2 and describes the status of JES2 commands to control device
status. The course examines the commands used to control JES2 printers, describes the setup
requirements that can be specified for a SYSOUT dataset and how these requirements relate to
printer setup characteristics. It also describes how JES2 combines SYSOUT datasets into output
groups, selects output groups for printing and provides a comprehensive examination of the JES2
Remote Job Entry (RJE) facility. The course discusses the commands used to control remote
devices, explains how to send messages to other operators and explains how JES2 handles the
commands used for displaying system information and controlling jobs when these commands are
entered from a remote station. It also demonstrates how to change the routing of jobs so their
output will be sent to other destinations.
Audience
This course is designed for operators with previous JES2 experience.
