Runtime commands

Use the usual ThruPut Manager commands ($DJ LONG, /SLM DISPLAY, /JOB DISPLAY,

/JBS D JOB, etc.) to display the status of Production Service Group jobs. To restrict (and restore) the flow of jobs in the PS queue, use the SLM SELECT command with the NOPRODUCTION and PRODUCTION (and the ALL and NONE) parameters.

The options of the SLM FALLBACK command affects whether a Production Service Group job is included in a "fallback" (and is requeued to the job class it would have been queued to had it not been SLM-managed). Production Service Group jobs are included in the ALL and PRODUCTIONONLY parameters.

See the Command-Reference-Guide for exact syntax and parameters.

Job Summary Report

The Job Summary Report can be included for the jobs assigned to a Production Service Group by selecting the appropriate option on the Production Service Group Definition panel. It is similar to the Job Summary Report for General Service Group jobs, with the differences highlighted on the following example.
