JOBPRI 

Sets or changes the default execution priority for batch jobs and sets a
maximum execution priority for batch jobs.  (Native Mode)

Syntax 

JOBPRI [maxsubqueue][,defaultsubqueue]

Parameters 

maxsubqueue           The maximum priority at which batch jobs are
                      allowed to run.  This overrides any job priority a
                      user may have requested with the JOB command.  This
                      parameter may be ES, DS, CS, or zero.  If zero is
                      specified, no limit is imposed on batch jobs.
                      Default is no change in maximum priority.

default- subqueue     The default execution priority for batch jobs,
                      which may be ES, DS, or CS. This takes effect if a
                      user does not specify an execution priority in the
                      JOB command.  Default is no change in execution
                      priority.

Operation Notes 

The maxsubqueue parameter specified in the JOBPRI command takes
precedence over defaultsubqueue.  Therefore, selecting a default
parameter greater than the value of maxsubqueue parameter does not affect
job execution.  Jobs are still initiated with the maximum priority
parameter.

Use 

This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK.
Pressing Break has no effect on this command.  System supervisor (OP)
capability is required to execute this command.

Example 

To raise the maximum execution priority so that batch jobs can run in any
subqueue requested, enter:

     JOBPRI 0
