How to release a JOB (from the input queue) held by TYPRUN =
HOLD ? and how to see the installation default time after
which a JOB will be automatically released ? How to see the
list of currently HELD JOBS ?

Answer Posted / abid

Answer to your first question is -- go to SDSF and give ST
in command line to enter the SDSF Status of Jobs menu.
Here you'll be able to see the held jobs [Held will be
written in front of the job].
To release the job, simly go in front of the job and type A
which stands for 'activate' to activate your job.
There are two ways to check which jobs are being held;
method 1 is SD.H menu; second method is SD.ST menu both
menus display the held jobs; difference is that SD.ST shows
status of all jobs in spool, and SD.H shows status of only
held jobs.
