Ed, thanks, yes, // SCHEDULE HOLDUNTL='+01:00' should do the trick. I sat through the session in Poughkeepsie on those scheduling features that IBM was adding to z/OS, but they did not really sink in, because I had no day-to-day need.
There is no need for the follow-on job to be identical. Heck, as I read HOLDUNTL, they could be identical. I would just have to schedule the first run for an hour earlier, so that it would run an hour after the time in the $TAMTIC. The exact time the job runs is not critical at all. It just has to be run once a day, and I want to re-run it or something very similar once an hour if it fails.
