Do you need to do something once it runs? Do you need to know how it completed? Well, currenty I only need to submit the job and need the information that it ended. But I guess in the near future I need more: is it running, which step and how it ended/abended. I could use the internal reader, but the problem is that I don't get back the Jobid of the job and so I can't check (even not by looking into SDSF) if the submitted job has started.

Using the symbolic allows the message to go to whomever submitted the job. In addition, using ROUTE XEQ will let me know when the job was submitted, and when it is complete, using console messages once again. Those only provide the very minimal information that you need at this point. It's a starting place, though.

It all depends on how the two systems are configured, and what software you already have running between them. In the JCL you can use COND or IF/THEN/ELSE to let you know if the job ABENDED.

Re: How to Submit and monitor a Job?
I have a assembler program that can be added as the last step of the JOB which will send you an email (via SMTP) with the step return codes (and abend codes if applicable) and the start, end and soem other additional information. I also have a facility that I wrote, that will do this same thing without the need for any extra steps in the JOB, it's in beta testing right now, and we will sell it for $2,500 per site license when it's ready.

Re: How to Submit and monitor a Job?
There are probably better answers, but depending on what you mean by monitor, you *may* be able to do the job with FTP. Look at the section of the manual on submitting jobs.

What is it you need to do once it ends? Do *you* just need to know that it has run? Do you need to do something once it runs? Do you need to know how it completed? With a bit more information you might get an answer that hits what you need just by making use of built in functionality.

Submitting a job from C is probably not an issue, but there is no API that I can think of that would allow a C program to monitor another job. A few years ago, at the request of a company that develops a job scheduler, I wrote an assembler sub-routine that can be called from C to retrieve the information about a given job: status, job number, step name, proc-step name, program, CPU time and real memory usage.
