:) yep first thing I thought of - no good I think my fellow team members may have shed some light, these jobs originally ran on SYSA, now run on SYSC, well I don't have the Jobclasses and destid's defined on that system, so I'm thinking this is causing both issues, I'm thinking if the DESTID is not defined on the system the jobs run, JES2 has no clue and put the job on user hold, same with the sysout (jobclasses) maybe . I'll let you know thanks Allan Carmen

When we print to R21, which is the alias to ltrm4fe, it comes out without the status of ‘user’ and prints to their printer without any issues. looking deeper into the Queues, I see many jobs sitting in the purge queue 'awaiting purge' and I cannot for the life of me figure out why, status shows $HASP890 JOB(VTAMCHK) $HASP890 JOB(VTAMCHK) STATUS=(AWAITING PURGE),CLASS=STC, $HASP890 PRIORITY=1,SYSAFF=(IND,ANY),HOLD=(NONE), $HASP890 PURGE=YES,CMDAUTH=(LOCAL),OFFS=(), $HASP890 SECLABEL=,USERID=VTAMCHK, $HASP890 SPOOL=(VOLUMES=(SYSSA2),TGS=1, $HASP890 PERCENT=0.0002),ARM_ELEMENT=NO,CARDS=2, $HASP890 REBUILD=NO,CC=(COMPLETED,RC=0),DELAY=(), $HASP890 CRTIME=(2016.339,15:03:32) I've attempted to cancel via JES $CSxxxx and jes2 comes back 'job cannot be cancelled' when I purge this job the status remains the same, they are already awaiting purge, any clues? thanks Carmen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ::DISCLAIMER:: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
