Jobs
The jobs section specifies a list of Transporter jobs. A job is a collection of job entries. Jobs are
processed serially, one at a time. This section starts with the keyword jobs followed by a list of
job definitions surrounded by curly braces.
The Java client accepts control files containing multiple jobs.
