qshell job log

VivekSharma — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 10:38:12 +0000

Hi

When I run any qshell command in my cl program, the job log for qshell gets created in QZSHSH.

Is there any way that we can prevent creation of such job logs.

Thanks

Vivek

In z/OS, can you write a message to another job’s job log?

I’ve got several situations where I’d like a program (e.g. a batch program) to be able to write a message in another job’s job log (e.g. to a CICS region saying “I’ve just set application ABC into overnight mode” or some such).

I don’t recall seeing this feature anywhere and have been through the Assembler macros manual and JES2 macros, as well as doing a bit of general forum searching, and haven’t been able to find anything yet. The authorized form of the WTO macro does allow JOBNAME and JOBID parameters but these seem to be simply for message identification as far as I can tell, not for actual routing to another address space’s job log.

Does anyone have any idea if this is possible? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Purging a file and restart the Job

Hi,
I have to purge a file for older records. Before starting the purge activity, I need to check what are the jobs locked the file and need to END the jobs then purge activity will be started.

After compilation of Purge Job, we need to restart the batch jobs which is ended by us in the previous steps.
I want to know that the command which is executed in batch jobs and its parameters.
From these details, I can restart the Job.

I tried with DSPJOBLOG to get the command which is executed but in some cases (eg, huge Job log is there) not able to find the command details in the joblog. I am expecting your input on this. If we have any other efficient way other than this, please let me know.
