Add an initiator

Initiator (or batch initiator) is a Service Execution Process for running JCL jobs. You can define initiators to start up automatically whenever the enterprise server is started, and you can also create ones that last only for the current session. This following specifies one initiator to start automatically using ESCWA:

  1. On the JES CONFIGURATION page, click * NEW next to INITIATORS.

    This opens the JES INITIATOR dialog box.

  2. In the Name field, type INIT1.
  3. In the Class field, type abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789
  4. Optionally, in the Description field, type a description for the initiator.
