This statement creates a new job pool file for a newer or older operating system version from the current job pool file opened beforehand with //OPEN-JOBPOOL-FILE.
The job pool file created can be used for a warm start as long as the following prerequisites for the system environment are met:
● The user IDs and job classes used by the jobs in the job pool must be available and
● the pubsets containing the command files, calendar files and MON JVs must be available.
When changing from BS2000 V21.0B or lower to BS2000 V21.0C, the structure of the job-describing data (JTBP) stored in the JOBPOOL has changed.

Operanden
TO-FILE = *STD-FILE-LINK / <filename 1..54 without-gen-vers>
File name of the new job pool.
TO-FILE = *STD-FILE-LINK
The file name is to be read from the task file table (TFT). The link name, which cannot be changed by the user, is CJOBPOOL. The user can therefore specify the file name prior to calling JMP by means of
/ADD-FILE-LINK LINK-NAME=CJOBPOOL,FILE-NAME=<filename>
If LINK-NAME is not specified, the statement is rejected and message JMP0015 appears.
TO-FILE = <filename 1..54 without-gen-vers>
Fully qualified file name of the new job pool.
OVERWRITE = *NO / *YES
Controls the overwriting of an existing file with the name specified in TO-FILE.
OVERWRITE = *NO
Prevents an existing file from being overwritten. If the file already exists, the statement is rejected and message JMP0012 appears.
OVERWRITE = *YES
Overwrites an existing file with the name specified for TO-FILE.
VERSION = *V3.0 / *V4.0
Specifies the version number of BS2000 to which the job pool file is to be converted. When converting the job pool, the structure of the job-describing data is modified.
VERSION = *V3.0
A job pool file is created for operating system versions greater than or equal to BS2000/OSD-BC V3.0 up to and including BS2000 V21.0B.
VERSION = *V4.0
A job pool file is created for operating system version BS2000 V21.0C.
