Reader Feedback and Insights: Group Job Limitation

June 14, 2002 Timothy Prickett Morgan

Hey, Ted:

I’m writing in response to the first tip that appears in the “Odds and Ends” column, May 17, 2002, Midrange Guru, OS/400 Edition.

I’ve always understood that when you transfer to a group job, the job that you leave doesn’t continue running, but it stops until you return to it. Am I correct? If so, you should tell your readers about this limitation.

— Fernando

Yes, Fernando. You are correct. Only one group job runs at a time.
