And you are on z/OS 2.2?

Where does the "cp" come into it?

Make two example programs. One which reads and writes, and one which reads.

Make two separate JOBs for them, with the output from the first and the input to the second using the "pipe".

Define the dependencies and stuff as outlined in the article.

Submit the (probably by now it is three) JOBs.

Once the first record is written in the first application JOB, it will be available for the second application JOB. So, the overall time for the work will be reduced because it can be run concurrently.

This should be "transparent" to the application - within any documented limits which may exist. Read the documentation, not just the article.
