job (required, type: str)

Specifies the job name on which the indicated function is performed.

Limits: 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters.

schid (type: str)

(Optional) Specifies the schedule ID (of this job) for which a user requirement is applied.

Limits: 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters

Notes:The step-name parameter applies to the first occurrence of the stepname that is encountered in the job stream. This includes any reference to the stepname embedded in a PROCThe only valid stepname would be for steps with PGM= coded, not for stepnames executing a PROCIf a job is restarted in a step after this step-name, the resource does not go through free processing until the job completesA step flush condition does not post the step-name process.

free (required, type: str)

Determines how VRM manages resource availability at job submission and job/step completion.

Valid values are:

A = Specifies the resource is only freed if any step in the job abends (abend or condition code checking)F = Specifies the resource is freed when job ends, either successfully or unsuccessfully. If the step-name parameter is specified, free the resource when the specified step completes, either successfully or unsuccessfullyN = Specifies do not free the resource at successful job completion. The resource can be freed with the PRSCF command. A cancel of the job also frees the resourceY = Specifies to free the resource at successful job completion.
