Answer / archana
Class is used by the initiators to pick a job from the
input queue. If there are 2 jobs with the same Class in the
input queue, then the initiator will execute the jobs based
on the priority.

Answer / prachi.
1)If there are two jobs with the same class, PRTY will
decide which job has to execute first.Job with the highest
priority will be executed first than the job with lowest
priority
2)If in the same JCL two jobs with No PRTY submitted in
that case..execution of the job depends on class
parameter...that is class will decide the priority
3)we will not be using the PRTY parameter if the class is
different..The use of PRTY is only when the jobs has same
job class..

if there are 2 jobs with the same class then it will check
for 'prty ' parameter.based on the prty it will submits.
if we are not coded any 'prty' paramater then which job
goes first time that will be executed.
for better understanding
class = a (2min) ,b (3min) , c (4min)
to separate the jobs based on the cpu time
consumed.installation dependent.
