Executing tailored jobs and tasks

You must process the jobs and tasks that were prepared by the file-tailoring phase individually through the execution phase.

To execute the IVP jobs and tasks:

  1. In the IVP Phase Selection panel, select option 6, 7, or 8.
    Each selection within a phase provides a different positioning option.
    The Execution panel opens and displays the list of the IVP jobs and tasks.
  2. Open each job and task. To view the instructions for each job and task use the ENT action command. Use the appropriate display modes and action commands.
    • For IVP jobs: You can browse, edit, or submit the job. When you are ready to run a job, you can either submit the job using the EXE action or you can edit and submit the job. Each job has a scrollable description that is associated with it to assist you in running the job.

      Some items are nonexecutable examples. For these examples, the submit action is disabled, but the browse and edit actions are available. You can use ISPF split-screen mode to create an executable version of nonexecutable items.

    • For IVP tasks: You are provided a scrollable description to assist you in performing the task.
  3. Press End or PF3 when you are done. Then press Enter again if you completed the execution of all jobs and tasks, or press End to save your work if you want to complete the execution phase later.
    You can return to the same location and run the jobs or tasks from a previous point by using the positioning options on the IVP Phase Selection panel.
