<h1 class="topictitle1">Use a group job</h1>
<div><p>Read this topic to find out about using Telnet, alternate jobs,
and group jobs to work with multiple systems.</p>
<div class="section"><p>You can use Telnet and the alternate job to connect to multiple
systems from your home system. Consider the following example:</p>
<br /><img src="rzaiw520.gif" alt="Figure depicts relationships between New York system,&#xA;Chicago system, and" /><br /><p>Telnet establishes a session from New
York to Chicago. You also want to go to the Los Angeles system and remain
connected to the Chicago system. You can start an alternate job on the New
York system, using System Request option 11. Use the Telnet command to establish
a session to the Los Angeles system. You can get to another system (Houston,
for example) by starting another Telnet session from the Chicago system or
the Los Angeles system.</p>
<p>An alternative to using the alternate job is
to use a group job. A group job is one of up to 16 interactive jobs that are
associated in a group with the same workstation device and user. To set up
a group job, follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Change the current job to a group job by using the Change Group
Attributes (CHGGRPA) command. </span> <pre>CHGGRPA GRPJOB(home)</pre>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Start a group job for the Chicago system by using the Transfer
to Group Job (TFRGRPJOB) command. </span> <pre>TFRGRPJOB GRPJOB(CHICAGO) INLGRPPGM(QCMD)</pre>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Establish a Telnet session to the Chicago system.</span> <pre>Telnet CHICAGO</pre>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Return to your home system by pressing the ATTN key. Pressing the
ATTN key shows you the Send Telnet Control Functions menu.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>In the character-based interface for the Send Telnet Control Functions
menu, type:</span> <pre>TFRGRPJOB GRPJOB(home)</pre>
<p>This returns you to your original job.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<div class="section"><p>You can start other group jobs and Telnet sessions similarly.</p>
<p>You
can use the TFRGRPJOB GRPJOB(*SELECT) command to select which group job you
want. For example, if group jobs with the names CHICAGO, LOSANGELES, HOUSTON,
and TOKYO start, the TFRGRPJOB GRPJOB(*SELECT) command shows the following
display:</p>
<pre>+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Transfer to Group Job |
| System: SYS198 |
|Active group job . . . : HOME |
|Text . . . . . . . . . : |
|Type option, press Enter. |
| 1=Transfer to group job |
| ----------------------Suspended Group Jobs----------------------- |
|Opt Group Job Text |
|_ TOKYO |
|_ HOUSTON |
|_ LOSANGELES |
|_ CHICAGO |
|Bottom F3=Exit F5=Refresh F6=Start a new group job F12=Cancel |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+</pre>
<p>You can then use Telnet to establish a session with each system
from the appropriate job. The following example shows a group job scenario:</p>
<br /><img src="rzaiw521.gif" alt="System A in New York contains Home Group job on System A, with bidirectional&#xA;arrows down a chain connecting to, in order: System B group job on System&#xA;A, System C group job on System A, System D group job on System A, and System&#xA;E group job on System A. Each System group job on A has an arrow pointing&#xA;to the correlating remote system (B, C, D, and E)." /><br /><p>When you
want to end the group job, use the End Group Job (ENDGRPJOB) command.</p>
<p>To
switch to another group job while in a Telnet session:</p>
<ol><li>Press the ATTN key.</li>
<li>Type TFRGRPJOB in the character-based interface.</li>
</ol>
