| No. A Job Scheduling system needs to be involved in order to do this. |

That's NOT what the DEADLINE parameter does.
DEADLINE specifies when the job is required. It has nothing to do with when it's actually started. |

Sivafdms,
You are in 2009. Your deadline parm is referring to 11th feb 2008. Also remember that Deadline parm is only valid on JES3 and JES2 doesn't have anything similar to it.
Superk,
I am not sure where got the info about DEADLINE parm but Deadline scheduling is indeed a method of scheduling jobs by time of day, or by week, month, or year.

kolusu,
Thanks for pointing out the mistake. Today i have tried //*MAIN DEADLINE=(2130,F,110209). even then the job didnot wait for that time.
Could you please tell me how can i determine that my shop supports JES3/JES2 ?
Thanks,
Siva |

When you open a job in SDSF the very fisrt line of the display that comes up for me is
| Code: |
J E S 2 J O B L O G -- S Y S T E M xxxx --

Wouldn't a JES3 statement give you a JCL error in a JES2 shop and vice versa?

Don't JES cntl cards begin with "/*"? E.G.: /*MAIN DEADLINE=(0433,B,110208)
Siva, give that a try.
