Options for restarting the job: Resubmit for production: Resubmits the job with no changes.  Force complete: Indicates whether to flag the job as normally completed. If force complete is selected, the previous abnormal status of the job is ignored, and normal job completion processing is performed instead of a restart.

Control M: Zoom Screen

This section breaks down the various fields you see within a job using the Zoom command.    Many of the fields within the zoom     screen can be altered.   There a few (they will show a different color) that cannot.   To make any changes, a job must be in a HELD     state before zooming, then when in the zoom screen make the changes and type SAVE at the command line.   Remember to FREE     the job when you are satisfied with your change.   Type CANCEL instead of SAVE if you don’t want your changes to be saved. MEMNAME – schedule member name, should be same as jobname. MEMLIB – denotes where CTM will scan for jcl, standard is GENERAL, which will default to the                     predefined concatenation.   An entry of DUMMY indicates a dummy job, or one that will not execute jcl.   These                    are used as schedule placeholders.   OWNER – owner id of job.

(WHY) Displays what a job is waiting on.    This shows only what a job is currently waiting on at that          time.    It will not show conditions that have already been met, and, certain requirements may change.   ex – you may check a job and it is waiting on a certain job/in-condition one minute.   you check 5 minutes          later and the in/condition may have been met, but it now is waiting on an INIT.       Also, within this screen, you can add an IN-CONDITION.   USE CAUTION when doing this.   It should     only be used when you are ABSOLUTELY SURE that you want to add this condition as it will add it for     any job on the schedule looking for it- and any other job looking for it on that day. L   (log) Displays IOA log entries for that job.   H (hold) Puts job in held status.   A job held will not change states until it is freed.   For example, if a job         is executing is held, even though the job ends, Control M will not change it’s sta
