Hi,
Normally you should see an error message in the QSYSOPR message queue and the job should have created a joblog spooled file.

=============================================================
That depends on what you mean by "failed". If it means it encountered an error condition and ended abnormally from an *ESCAPE message, it will be very different from a job that 'handled' a problem and ended itself normally.
Without being told what failures are involved, we can't guess how to recognize a failure.
Please describe some example conditions and we can provide more detailed replies.

Hello,
You can always do a WRKJOB JOB(jobname). This will pull up several if the job has been run multiple times and you can look at the different dates to see the job log for each to find where the job failed.

hi,
WRKJOB gives the joblog only if the job is *ACTIVE. If the job is already ended with error, we can see the error message in QSYSOPR messages.

Hi,
WRKJOB also lets you see the spooled files for the job, so if the job has created a joblog spooled file and it’s still in the system then you can still see the joblog.
