You have a series of jobs in a mainframe environment, and you need to ensure that Job A runs only after both Job B and Job C have successfully completed. Explain how you would set up this dependency.
- Configuring job precedences
- Employing job conditions
- Implementing job triggers
- Using JCL dependencies
Setting up dependencies in JCL involves specifying job conditions, such as using job triggers or defining dependencies explicitly. Understanding how to use these features ensures that Job A runs only after Jobs B and C have successfully completed.
