<h1 class="topictitle1">Job description</h1>
<div><p>The job description allows you to create a set of job attributes
that are saved and available for multiple uses. The job description can be
used as the source for some of the job attributes that tell the system how
to run a job. The attributes tell the system when to start the job, where
to get the job from, and how the job will run. You can think of a job description
as a template that many jobs can use, thereby reducing the number of specific
parameters that you need to set for each individual job. </p>
<p>Job descriptions are used by autostart, batch, interactive, and prestart
job types. You can use the same job description for multiple jobs. When you
define a job, you can use the job description in one of two ways:</p>
<ul><li>Use a specified job description without overriding any of its attributes.
For example:<blockquote><pre>SBMJOB JOB(OEDAILY) JOBD(QBATCH)</pre>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Use a specified job description but override some of the attributes (using <span class="cmdname">BCHJOB</span> or <span class="cmdname">SBMJOB</span> command).
For example, to override the message logging in the job description QBATCH,
specify:<blockquote><pre>SBMJOB JOB(OEDAILY) JOBD(QBATCH)
LOG(2 20 *SECLVL)</pre>
</blockquote>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> You cannot override any job
description attributes for autostart jobs, workstation jobs, or communication
jobs.</div>
</li>
</ul>
