Answer / mvrams

The Answer is Yes. We can have multiple jobs in the same
PDS member. For example my pds member is mvrams.jcl(myjobs)
The memeber my jobs can have multiple job cards coded like
this.

MYJOB1 JOB (GNAC-TSO-T),'COPY JOB',CLASS=P,MSGCLASS=5
......................
.......................
/*
MYJOB2 JOB (GNAC-TSO-T),'COPY JOB',CLASS=P,MSGCLASS=5
.......................
.......................

Generally we dont do this in model/prod environment,
because in CA7 scheduler we can only get the notification
for one job ( in one PDS member )
