Controlling Job Submittal with STREAMS
The STREAMS facility is used to accept jobs for processing in batch mode.
The STREAMS command is used to designate an input ldev as $STDIN for all
batch jobs that are submitted via the STREAM command. This device is
commonly configured as ldev 10, with a device class of JOBTAPE. It may be
a logical device only, or a physical device as well.
Before the system will recognize the STREAM command, and before users can
execute it, the system operator must first enable the STREAMS facility by
issuing the STREAMS command.
