Talk:Job Entry Subsystem 1

This page should not be speedily deleted because, admittedly THREE months after I created it (mostly as a counterpart to the more detailed JES2/JES3 article) I began adding more details.

JES2 and JES3 are the MVS counterparts to the earlier HASP and ASP software used with earlier Operating Systems. JES1 was the "JES2" of VS1. In particular, earlier today I added links to both the IBM "proclamation" ("...the most important...") and the more technical IBM Systems Journal article. VS1 and JES1 are part of computing history, and can be better understood by exploring the role played by HASP, both for Local job input/output and Remote Job Entry (RJE).

OS/VS1 JES, aka JES1, is not based on HASP. It is essentially the SPOOL capabilities of OS/360 with SPOOL datasets kept in a JES managed SPOOL dataset^[1] instead of individual physical sequential (PS) data sets on public DASD and a considerable degree of reorganization, e.g., reader and writer partions are only needed to start and stop.
