1) Is CLASS used for assigning Priority (as we say a job
having class '6' will run before the job having class '5'?
then what is the difference between CLASS and PRTY ?
2) In a same JCL, 2 JOB statements with different Classes
and NO PRTY are submitted ? which will run first ? & with
different classes and different PRTY also, which will run
first now ?
Answer Posted / 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..
