Basic Commands Used  in Spool to Check The Jobs:

    DA      àDisplay Active Jobs

    ST       àStatus of jobs

    I          àInput Queue

    O        àOutput Queue

    H         àHold

Whenever the job got abended it will move to LIST queue moreover if the job having resources  ready it will move to active queue.

List Queue is again a part of  ready queue, whenever the job comes to LIST Queue manually we have to fix the errors and again move to ready queue.

Ex:

·         When the job is in the Ready Queue, CA-7 will not release the job from the Ready Queue to Spool until it gets all the resources.

·         If the job is hung up in ready queue for a long time, we will move the job from the ready queue to the Request Queue.

·         We use Request command to move jobs from ready queue to Request Queue,

          REQUEUE, JOB=(JOB NAME/JOB NO), Q=(RDY)

 Don’t use Requeue Command when the job is submitted to spool, as it creates one more instance of the job in the Request Queue.
