Non-JDL hierarchy — START command
The next level of command replacement above the JOB or JDE
command (as illustrated in figure 2-6) is the START command.
Values specified in the START parameter override those in the job
command level. When the COPIES parameter is specified in the
START command, it overrides a DJDE value for COPIES from the
input data stream.
START command
The START command is used to initiate printing of the application
you have created. The options shown below vary depending on the
input source and the output destination. The offline and online
START command formats are as follows:

Restrictions
Note the following restrictions:
•
The START command parameters are positional and must be
separated by commas. You must enter a comma to replace a
parameter that is not specified. The options you specify in the
START command override those specified in the job descriptor
library.
•
If a specified font or form file fails a validity check during input,
the system aborts the job and displays the following messages:
OS8852 Invalid font file header
OS8855 Invalid form file header
•
START with parameters does not execute when HIP print jobs
are being processed.
•
You cannot specify a tape device when you have specified
DISC or FORM.
