I do something similar, however, in my case it's slightly different.
A specific job class is assigned a CPU limit by JES. JES2 Exit 6 is use to
eliminate the TIME= from the jobcard,
(coded by users to avoid the limit), and force the default limit specified in
the relevant jobclass definition.
HTH,
<snip>
All jobs that are submitted in class G get a time parm.
This way, the user cannot override the time value that can be coded in the
JOBCLASS statement.
The problem is that if we create a class named GABC (the class in the case is
four characters long) it will also get the time parm added.
All of our classes are defined as:
JOBCLASS(G) AUTH=INFO,BLP=YES,COMMAND=DISPLAY,JOURNAL=NO,SWA=ABOVE,
MSGLEVEL=(1,1),PERFORM=1,REGION=2M,RESTART=NO,TIME=(6,0)

Subject: Re: JES2 v2.1 exit question
So which of the following is true
1) All jobs using CLASS=G get a time parm
2) Specific Job Names in CLASS=G get a time parm
The reason I ask is that on the JOBCLASS statement in the JES2 DECK can provide
a default time parameter for jobs. If the user codes the TIME= on the EXEC or
JOB Statement, I believe that would override the default in the
JES2 JOBCLASS statement. Could you let me know why that may or may not work
for you?
Could you provide the JOBCLASS statements from the JES2 Init deck for the
Classes of G,A,B,C?
