RE: Subsystem

STOP!

The way your QBATCH jobq is defined, as soon as you change the subsystem description to process *NOMAX, the QBATCH jobq will no longer be single threaded... This could cause REAL trouble if your applications expect that jobq to be single threaded...

You've had single threaded operation only because the subsystem description only allowed one active job...

Just be sure you understand the implications...

Subject: Subsystem

 
We have two departments Billing and Finance, batch jobs of both departments are going to same job queue QBATCH.
jobs submitted by one department should not conflict with those of other.
 
I have a job queue KIS which is attached to subsystem QBATCH.
 
the number of maximum jobs in subsystem allowed is one and Job queue is also one.
 
If  I increase maximum jobs in  subsystem to *NOMAX and KIS job queue to *NOMAX  will it solve my problem.
means can I run multiple jobs in same jobq.

 
Can you please advise.
