Just curious, If your tasks had a first step that mod'd a common dataset and then CICS would query that data set, could you set it up that way?
The data set could contain the info you need Date Time Task_Name Plex_name Startup/Shutdown state. Plex_name could also include LPAR name So first step of job would set the startup date/time The last step of the job would set the shutdown date/time.
