RE: Running job every hour

[Neil Palmer <npalmer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I know there are better ways, but what I did with a job that
verifies my dial-up modems are varied on, and runs every 2 hours, was
just add multiple jobs via ADDJOBSCDE.  Do it from the command, not F6
from WRKJOBSCDE, so you can quickly repeat the command and make a change
to the job name/scheduled time.

For example, from my system:

                        Work with Job Schedule Entries
SSLTD400
                                                            03/13/98
21:37:20




Type options, press Enter.

  2=Change   3=Hold   4=Remove   5=Display details   6=Release

  8=Work with last submission    10=Submit immediately



                                                                   Next

                         -----Schedule------             Recovery
