The SJC$_JOB_SIZE_SCHEDULING item code is a Boolean item code. It specifies that print jobs entered in an output queue should be scheduled according to size, with the smallest job of a given priority processed first. It is the default.

The SJC$_NO_JOB_SIZE_SCHEDULING item code is a Boolean item code. It specifies that print jobs of a given priority should not be scheduled according to print size.

Changing the value of this item code for a queue while print jobs are pending on any queue produces unpredictable results.

SJC$_JOB_STATUS_OUTPUT

The SJC$_JOB_STATUS_OUTPUT item code is an output value item code. When specified, $SNDJBC returns, as a character string, a textual message describing the status of a submitted job.

(Valid for SJC$_ALTER_JOB, SJC$_CREATE_JOB, SJC$_ENTER_FILE function codes)

SJC$_LOG_QUEUE

The SJC$_LOG_QUEUE item code is an input value item code. It is meaningful only for batch jobs. It specifies the queue into which the log file produced for the batch job is entered for printing. The buffer must specify the name of the queue. By default, the log file is entered in queue SYS$PRINT.

If your system uses multiple queue managers to run batch queues on a separate queue manager from output queues, certain checks that would otherwise be performed for the SJC$_LOG_QUEUE item code of the $SNDJBC system service are not performed.

When batch and print queues are managed by the same queue manager, the queue manager checks to ensure that the queue specified with the SJC$_LOG_QUEUE is an output queue and that the user has access to the output queue. These checks are not made if the batch queue specified by the $SNDJBC service and the output queue specified by the SJC$_LOG_QUEUE item code are managed by different queue managers. If you explicitly specify an output queue for the log file when submitting a batch job, be sure the queue you specify with the SJC$_LOG_QUEUE is an output queue and not a batch queue. Also, be sure that you have access to the printer queue.

(Valid for SJC$_ALTER_JOB, SJC$_CREATE_JOB, SJC$_ENTER_FILE function codes)

The SJC$_NEW_VERSION item code is a Boolean item code.

When used with the SJC$_START_QUEUE_MANAGER function code, it specifies that a new (empty) version of the queue database is to be created, whether or not the database files already exist. This item code is required when initially creating and starting the queuing system, but it should be used with caution thereafter.

Caution
If you specify this item code and a queue database already exists, the new master and queue files of the queue database supersede existing version of those files. However, the journal files of the queue database are deleted. Thus, jobs and other information are lost.

SJC$_PARAMETER_1 through SJC$_PARAMETER_8

SJC$_NO_PARAMETERS

The SJC$_PARAMETER_1 through SJC$_PARAMETER_8 item codes are input value item codes; the last digit of the item code name is a number from 1 through 8. For each item code specified, the buffer must specify a string of no more than 255 characters. For batch jobs, the string becomes the value of the DCL symbol P1 through P8, respectively, within the outermost command procedure.

For print jobs, the system makes the string available to the symbiont, though the standard OpenVMS print symbiont does not use this information. By default, each of the eight parameters specifies a null string.

For function code SJC$_ALTER_JOB, if any SJC$_PARAMETER item is specified, the value of each unspecified item is the null string.

The SJC$_NO_PARAMETERS item code is a Boolean item code. It specifies that none of the SJC$_PARAMETER items are to be passed in the batch or print job. It is the default.

(Valid for SJC$_CREATE_QUEUE function code)

SJC$_PRIORITY

The SJC$_PRIORITY item code is an input value item code. The buffer must specify a longword value in the range 0 through 255. This value specifies the scheduling priority of the job in a queue relative to the scheduling priority of other jobs in the same queue.

By default, the scheduling priority of the job is the value of the SYSGEN parameter DEFQUEPRI.

If you specify a value for SJC$_PRIORITY that is greater than the SYSGEN parameter MAXQUEPRI and you do not have either ALTPRI or OPER privilege, the system uses the greater of the following two values: DEFQUEPRI or MAXQUEPRI. If you have either ALTPRI or OPER privilege, the system uses any value you specify for SJC$_PRIORITY, even if it is included in the range between MAXQUEPRI + 1 and 255.

(Valid for SJC$_ABORT_JOB, SJC$_ALTER_JOB, SJC$_CREATE_JOB, SJC$_ENTER_FILE function codes)

SJC$_PROCESSOR

SJC$_NO_PROCESSOR

The SJC$_PROCESSOR item code is an input value item code. The buffer must specify a valid OpenVMS RMS file name.

SJC$_PROTECTION

The SJC$_PROTECTION item code is an input value item code. It specifies the protection of a queue.

The buffer must specify a longword in the format shown in the following diagram.

Bits 0 through 15 specify the protection value: the four types of access (read, submit, manage, delete) to be granted to the four categories of user (System, Owner, Group, World). Set bits deny access and clear bits allow access.

Bits 16 through 31 specify the protection enable mask: they identify which part of the protection value (bits 0 through 15) is to be applied to queue protection. If all bits are set in the enable mask, it means that all of the protection values are to be applied. A value other than --1 in the protection enable mask means that only those bits set will affect the corresponding bits in the protection value. When a bit in the protection enable mask is clear, the corresponding bit in the existing queue protection value is unchanged.

By default, the queue protection is (S:M,O:D,G:R,W:S).

Note that on VAX systems you can assign ACLs to queues using the $SET_SECURITY system service.

(Valid for SJC$_ALTER_QUEUE, SJC$_CREATE_QUEUE, SJC$_START_QUEUE function codes)
