I noticed that this is a request on the SIGMPE/SIGSYSMAN ballot. You can insure that the job runs in the CS queue no matter what is on the jobcard by inserting the following line before the execution of inetd. !ALTPROC ;PIN=0;PRI=CS This alters you current process (the CI) to the CS queue. Anything that is launched by the CI is then launched in the CS queue. Have used this technique for various tasks and it works well. Robert Schlosser Harris Corporation Melbourne, FL. (407) 727-5893
