How many job queues can a subsystem have?

maximum of 9999 jobques can be attached to a subsystem.

The subsystem first selects jobs from the job queue with the lowest sequence number. When all
jobs on that queue have been processed or the number of jobs specified on the Maximum active
jobs (MAXACT) parameter has been reached, the subsystem processes jobs on the queue with
the next higher sequence number. This sequence continues until all job queue entries have been
processed, or until the subsystem has reached its limit for overall maximum jobs. In some cases,
the sequence is interrupted and the subsystem processes a job queue with a lower sequence
number. This occurs for this subsystem when one of the following conditions occurs:
