Any work that is processed by the AS/400 is called a job. Two important

types of jobs are interactive jobs and batch jobs. All ETU commands can

be run interactively. Some can be run in batch mode, as well.

Interactive jobs begin processing the moment you execute them, usually

when you press the ENTER key. The microcomputer from which you execute

the job is input inhibited or tied up until the interactive job is

completed. During this time you can't use the host session from which you

have initiated ETU.

The following commands are interactive and can be run only from a

microcomputer emulating a 5250: ALOCATB, DELETEB, TO3XB, PGMTO3XB,

PGMFROM3XB, RENAMEB, TESTB, FROM3XB, PRTFROM3X, PRTTO3X, EDITTABLE, and

STRSEU.

You must run these commands from the microcomputer that you are sending

the file to or receiving it from.

The power commands can be initiated from any AS/400 display.  The source

or target device specified in the transfer must be a microcomputer

running 5250 emulation with the AS/400 sign-on screen displayed.

Batch jobs are submitted to a job queue where they are processed along

with any other jobs on the queue. Batch jobs do not tie up your

microcomputer.

The ETU commands that translate data or work with translation tables can

be run in batch mode as well as interactively. These commands are

PRTXFRMPC, PRTXTOPC, XLATEFROM, and XLATETO. You can run these commands

from a microcomputer emulating a 5250, or from any host terminal attached

to the host system.

The ETU power commands can also be submitted to batch by using SBMJOB or

the ETU utility SBMBATXFER (submit batch transfer). The power commands

are PWRDELETEB, PCFROMPC, PCTOPC, PWRFROM3XB, PWRRENAMEB, and PWRTO3XB.
