<h1 class="topictitle1">Common job tasks</h1>
<div><p>This information discusses the most common tasks that you can perform
with jobs. It provides you with instructions for both iSeries™ Navigator (where available) and
the character-based interface.</p>
</div>
<div>
<ul class="ullinks">
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksstartjobmanual.htm">Start a job</a></strong><br />
Interactive jobs are started when the user signs on
to a workstation. You start prestart jobs and batch jobs by using iSeries Navigator
or the character based interface, depending upon the circumstances.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakshowendjob.htm">End a job</a></strong><br />
You can use the iSeries Navigator or the character-based interface
to end a job. The job can be active or on a job queue. You can end a job immediately
or by specifying a time interval so that end of job processing can occur.
</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksfindpartjob.htm">Find jobs</a></strong><br />
It is important to understand how to find jobs on your iSeries server.
Whatever the reason, at some point in time you might need certain information
from a particular job.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksvwjobonjobq.htm">View jobs on the job queue</a></strong><br />
Job queues filter some of the work that is processed in work management (for example, some batch jobs). Being able to view jobs in the job queue allows you to see what jobs are waiting to be sent to a subsystem.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksvwjobonsbs.htm">View jobs in the subsystem</a></strong><br />
Subsystems coordinate work flow and the resources that a job uses
to run. iSeries Navigator
allows you to see what jobs are currently active (but not necessarily running)
in the subsystem.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksjobproperties.htm">View job attributes</a></strong><br />
Job attributes contain information about how jobs are processed.
They are originally specified when the job is created. Some of the attributes
come from the job description. After the job is created, the job attributes
can be viewed and managed through work management in iSeries Navigator. The job properties
pages in iSeries Navigator
make a system operator's job easier by providing efficient and easy-to-use
functions for managing jobs.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksviewcallstack.htm">View call stacks</a></strong><br />
You can view information about a job or thread's call stack by using either iSeries™ Navigator or the character-based interface.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksputjobsonjobqueueX.htm">Place a job on the job queue</a></strong><br />
Jobs are placed on the job queue by either moving an existing job
from one queue to another, or by submitting a new job. Use iSeries Navigator
to move jobs between queues. Use the character-based interface to submit a
new job.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksmvjobtonwjobqX.htm">Move a job to a different job queue</a></strong><br />
There are many reasons why you might want to move a job to another queue. For example, sometimes jobs become backlogged in the queue because of a long running job. Perhaps the job's scheduled run time conflicts with a new job that has a higher priority. One way to manage this situation is to move the waiting jobs to another queue that is not as busy.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksmovejobinqueue.htm">Move a job up in priority within a job queue</a></strong><br />
All jobs in a job queue wait in line for processing. As each job in the queue completes, the next job in line begins. The processing order of the jobs in the queue depends upon the job's priority, and the maximum number of jobs that can run at the same time on the subsystem.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksjobprioritytip.htm">Tips for setting job priorities</a></strong><br />
The priorities for jobs that run in batch environments should normally be lower than priorities for jobs in interactive environments. Also, the time slice should be small enough so that a looping program does not dominate processor time and an activity level.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakssmtjobonce.htm">Submit a job once</a></strong><br />
When you need to run a job once, whether immediately or at a scheduled
date and time, use the Submit Job (<span class="cmdname">SBMJOB</span>) command. This
method places the job on the job queue immediately.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzaksaffinity.htm">View job affinity information</a></strong><br />
Each job on the iSeries contains memory and processor affinity information.</li>
