 how to generate a Joblog when the job is only ended abnormally
Job, JOBD, Joblog
Hi,

I have a JOBD and it is creating joblog for jobs now. I don't need joblogs everytime but I need the joblog when it ends with any error.

How to achieve this issue.

Thanks in advance

Answer Wiki:
The job will run according to the environment described in its job description. The job description object will have a LOG() attribute. Set LOG(4 0 *NOLIST) on the job description for the logging level that is most useful for abnormal termination. A job end code less than 20 will suppress spooling of the joblog. Tom

Hi Tom,

But now I have a concern. the same job description is also being used by other jobs. but I want to stop the joblog for only one particular job. Kindly assist on this.

Check out the Message Logging parms on the SBMJOB command. The default for these three values is *JOBD. You can change them for the submitted job without effecting the job description. Just use the same values Tom recommended.

Another option would be to duplicate the current job description for that procedure (and any like it) and make the necessary changes to the logging levels.

…the same job description is also being used by other jobs. but I want to stop the joblog for only one particular job.

Create a second job description for the single user to use. Or create a routing program that changes the LOG() level for the single user. Or use the QIBM_QWT_JOBNOTIFY exit point to detect that user’s jobs and to make the change to that job’s LOG() level.

I’m sure there are many ways to get it done. We don’t know what you are allowed to change on your system.
