Answer / babu

we can have the comments at the beginning of a jobcard. But
the system will expect the job name for the specified
comments also. once you give the jobname then it will try
to execute the steps you have till it comes accross the
next jobname which is original that has been mentioned in
the JCL member. two jobs will be submitted.
