IBM System/360 Operating System
Remote Job Entry

Program Number 360S-RC-536



This manual is designed to present the general con-
cepts and facilities of RJE which allow users at remote
locations to submit jobs over communication lines to an
IBM System/360 using the Operating System that provides
multiprogramming with a variable number of tasks.
Information on the capabilities and uses, the operating
environment, and work station states and activities is
included for the programmer and operator of the system.

The Job Entry Control Language is introduced and
explained. The Job Entry Definition Statement, work
station commands, messages sent to work stations, and
central commands are discussed in terms of their func-
tions, and how the user employs them in programs.

A discussion of RJE generation includes the neces-
sary macro instructions. Communication Serviceability
Facilities, such as error recovery procedures, and sys-
tem restart procedures are discussed separately as well
as with the work stations.
