SORT Parameters
Parameter Description
sortspec
This parameter specifies the order in which all listings will be produced.
Sortspec is expressed as one of the following:
CREATION
Sort by time it was introduced, or the scheduled execution
time.
DEVICE
Sort by device class and logical device. Logical devices sort
before device classes.
FILENAME
Sort by job name (always
$STDIN
).
JOB
Sort by job number.
NAME
Sort by job/session name.
PRI
Sort by input priority.
SIZE
Sort by spool file size.
USER
Sort by session, account and user.
Specifying more than one sortspec will cause the major sort to be the first
sortspec, with additional sorting on the other, more minor, sortspecs. Each
sortspec may be shortened to as few as one character if desired.
DESC
This parameter specifies that the sort should be done in descending order.
This applies to all
sortspec
keys at once.
OFF
This parameter specifies that no sorting is to be done.
