Good one Jeff! If the global limit takes precedence over queue limits, then the bootup default limit for $sysjobq could be UNLIMited, which would be overridden by an explicit setting as you describe. >My vote is the default jobQ membership is based on the user.account in the >:JOB command.

Yes, and if an admin *really* prefers the other model (jobq based on user.acct of the user who :STREAMs the job) it could be done with a system-level STREAM UDC: anyparm parm=$stdin stream !parm;jobq=!HPDEFJOBQ (yes, I know it would be more complex than that if you still wanted the user to be able to specify ;jobq on the command line... but you get the point) > This assumes that user.acct is a sufficient default jobQ membership >criteria.

Again, if absolutely necessary this could be done (kludged) with a STREAM UDC (if jsname='thisjob' then setvar streamq 'thisq'...). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Diercks -------- mail: [log in to unmask] Programmer/Analyst /|| | chat: powwow:[log in to unmask] Computing Services /_|| | WWW : http://rowlf.csv.anderson.edu/ Anderson University / ||__| tel : (317)641-4305 Anderson, IN 46012 -------- fax : (317)641-3851 o________________________________________________________ ___ _\_, \=`==^==> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
