Does the terms, JOBLOG, SPOOL and SYSOUT indicate the same
thing, i.e., where JCL and JES messages and statements are
written ?

Answer Posted / kalaimani

joblog is nothing but a directory. it contains all job
related informations. spool is the place where we can see
our job related messages and status of the job. sysout
indicates where the output messages are routed to.
