28.5.1.2 JES2 Commands
There are many JES2 commands to display the work on your system:
$DA
Use the $DA command to display information about active jobs,
started tasks, and time-sharing users. This also shows jobs active on
JES2 devices such as printers.
started tasks, and time-sharing users. This also shows jobs active on
JES2 devices such as printers.
$DN
Use the $DN command with various filters (Q=, V=, R=) to display
jobs in specific phases of JES2 processing, on specific spool volumes,
or with specified route-codes.
jobs in specific phases of JES2 processing, on specific spool volumes,
or with specified route-codes.
$DJ
Use the $DJ, $DS, or $DT commands to display information about jobs,
started tasks, or time-sharing users, known to JES2 on any queue,
active or not.
started tasks, or time-sharing users, known to JES2 on any queue,
active or not.
$DJQ
The $DJOBQ command is even more powerful with many different
filters including wild-card characters to display information about jobs
known to JES2.

28.5.1.3 SDSF Panels
There are four basic panels in SDSF to show active jobs:
ST
Status of all jobs known to JES2, along with many characteristics such
as amount of spool space being used.

DA
Display of all Active jobs, started tasks and time sharing users, along
with ASID, and RMF information about CPU, storage, and I/O rates.
