Sending Jobs to a Host

To operate NRJE you must do the following:

Log on to the HP 3000.
Optionally define any formal designators you will use.
Invoke NRJE.
Issue a SUBMIT command.

Defining Formal Designators

Define formal file designators with a FILE command. You can do this before you invoke NRJE, or within NRJE. When a formal designator is used, it must be preceded by an asterisk (*). The asterisk indicates a reference to a previous FILE command. See the MPE Commands Reference Manual or the MPE Software Pocket Guide.




	CAUTION: NRJE uses the files INPUT and OUTPUT for processing internal messages. Therefore, these files are reserved for use by NRJE and should not be specified by the user. Use of these files could result in corrupted user data.

NRJE Command

Invoke NRJE from MPE by issuing the command

:NRJE Wsid

where Wsid is a workstation identifier. See NRJE in Chapter 3 “User Commands”

When you use NRJE as an MPE command you can omit the workstation identifier; however, you must use a Wsid parameter in every command that refers to a workstation.

Kinds of NRJE Users

NRJE users can perform the following tasks:

Transmit and receive batch jobs between an HP 3000 serving as a workstation and a host system. No special HP 3000 user capabilities are required.
Control an HP 3000 workstation. NM user capability is required. Users configured with NM capability can be NRJE managers.

An NRJE manager can do everything a user can do. Some user commands have NRJE manager extensions.

Sample NRJE Session on an HP 3000

See Chapter 3 “User Commands” for a description of each of the commands in the following sample session. In this sample, user input is shown in the first column, and instructions and explanations are in the second.

               Log onto the HP 3000

:HELLO USER.ACCT,GROUP
WELCOME TO THE HP 3000

                         Invoke the NRJE subsystem by entering the NRJE
                         command and specifying RMT11 as the                          default workstation identifier.
:NRJE RMT11
                         A banner line identifies NRJE and its version.

product number version number NJRE (C) HEWLETT-PACKARD CO. copyright year

                         An NRJE welcome message follows the banner line.
                         The text of this message is configured by an
                         NRJE manager.
WELCOME TO NRJE
                         A configured prompt string, RMT11>, is sent by NRJE.
                         This identifies your default workstation.

RMT11>...
                         Now you can issue an NRJE subsystem command.

                         A two-line SUBMIT command is entered next.
                         An ampersand (& ) continues the command to
                         a second line.  File identifiers follow the
                         command. All files are from your logon group
                         and account.

RMT11>SUBMIT FRONTJCL, DATA1, DATA2,&
RMT11>BACKJCL

                         A message is displayed indicating that your
                         job stream has been constructed and is
                         ready to be sent to the host system.

                         Note the number in the message (1042) for
                         future reference, or use the job naming
                         capabilities of the SUBMIT command.

JOB SUCCESSFULLY SUBMITTED. THE SPOOL FILE IS:
#O1042
                         Now you can issue other NRJE commands.
RMT11>...

                         Issue an EXIT command which returns
                         control to MPE.
RMT11>EXIT
                         Your MPE prompt is returned and you can issue 
                         MPE commands.
:...

You may want to find out about the jobs you have submitted, cancel your jobs, or change their transmission priority. The commands available for these tasks are described in Chapter 3 “User Commands” and summarizes all of the routine commands. (Manager commands required for day-to-day workstation operations are described in the SNA NRJE Node Manager's Guide.)
