Answer / suresh
We can submit more than one job from single JCL by giving
multiple job cards in the JCL.
Its not necessary to have the same job name for all the
jobs. If all the jobs have the same job name, then the
jobs will be in queue to finish one by one.
Please let me know, if you are exepecting something
different.

Answer / muttaiah
1. There can be only 1 job in a jobcard.
2. There can be multiple jobs in the JCL(Job stream, I mean
the file-PS/PDS in which you have your jcl)
3. Say when you submit the JCL with 2 jobs, jobs will be
submitted, The job having class & priority as higher will
execute first. well let me give you an example.
JOBA(Jobname1) - Class(A), Priority(10)
JOBB(Jobname2) - Class(A), Priority(12)
In this case, JOBB will run first instead of jobA since
priority is higher.
Say you want to run JOBB only after the execution of JOBA
then make the job name same as JOBA
Change Jobname2 as Jobname1 and submit the jcl.
JOBB will run only after JOBA.
Hope your understand

when we submit job or jobs ....jobs get different classes..
if job name is same output would be unpredictable coz MVS
can run any of the job..once job is executed MVS is not
going to execute another job with the same name.
so the jobs with the same name will be executed but output
will be unprectable.
