Batch Mode Operations 

In batch mode, jobs submit RJE commands and data to RJE for processing.

See Chapter 5, "Using RJE in Programmatic Mode," for batch mode
operations in programmatic mode.

Starting Batch Mode 

Batch mode begins with entry of the !JOB and !RJE commands (MPE) in the
job file.  Following the resulting start message from the system, RJE
reads the first command in the job.  (Consult the MPE commands manual for
information on writing and streaming jobs.)

Ending Batch Mode 

Batch mode is ended with use of the #RJEND command.  This transmits an
EOT control character to the remote processor.  It then performs a line
disconnect operation and terminates the RJE subsystem.  The job ends with
the !EOJ command (MPE).

Command Files 

After RJE has finished processing commands from a command file specified
in an #RJCMDFILE subsystem command, control will be returned to the
command file specified by the :RJE command.

If the command file specified in the subsystem command #RJCMDFILE cannot
be opened, the job is aborted and control will be returned to MPE.

Error Handling 

Errors occurring during execution of the job will cause an error message
to be written to the job listing device, and in most cases, the job will
be terminated by the error.
