New Jobname

Job name that will replace the one in the JCL member. This allows you to override the value in your JCL from the Controller without having to modify the JCL.

This value should be validated before the job is launched to avoid JES start failures.

The syntax of a job name is:

  • 1-8 characters
  • Upper case
  • Name must start with an alphabetic or $, #, @ character.
  • Remaining characters are alphanumeric or $, #, @.
  • No spaces or tabs.
