The /DTL and /END job definition command options must be included within each job definition file. In addition to these minimum option requirements, the job should include a TASK or SUBJOB option or both.

DTL and /END

The /DTL option marks the start of the DTL job definition. With its inclusion, Connect validates that the job definition is specified in DTL syntax.

The /END option marks the end of the DTL job definition. It must be listed after all other options within the job definition. Any text after /END is ignored.

If the /DTL and /END command options are not included in the job definition file, an error is generated and the job aborts.

/TASK

To specify the tasks that the job runs, the TASK job definition command option must be included in the job definition file.

/SUBJOB

To specify the subjobs that the job runs, the /subjob job definition command option must be included in the job definition file.
