Re: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC
There are several programs that will do most of what what you want on the CBT tape. We have one that we give away with our system automation products called SyzEMAIL, that will send either an email or TSO notify message (or both) with all of the jobs condition codes, or just individual steps. You can provide any ID's you want notified (either with EMAIL or SEND or both), separately, or you can default to sending only to the person who submitted the job.

If you have SMTP running on your system, you can send the user a e-mail message. At my site we use XMITIP for this purpose all the time. Mark T.

The max return code for the job is available in JCTMAXRC if bit JCT4RCST is set in JCTFLAG4. JCTLSTAB contains the abend code, if the job abended, if that same bit is set, along with JCT4STAB. I.e. if JCT4STAB is set, then the job abended and the code is in JCTLSTAB. If it is not set, then the max RC is in JCTMAXRC.

Re: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC
Nevertheless, as XMITIP is written in REXX you can always enhance the notication with your own code, or include a step to test the completion codes of each step in a job and send different messages to different users depending on the results. see: http://www.mail-archive.com/ibm-main@bama.ua.edu/msg05588.html http://www.mail-archive.com/ibm-main@bama.ua.edu/msg05795.html to get an idea.

Re: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC
By the way... If you in z/OS 1.9 or above; If you like programming with REXX; Take a look at the new SDSF interface with REXX... You can, for instance, check your job output hourly, as you would do with SDSF panels and check for results... then inform your users if anything goes wrong... even with a simple TSO SEND. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC
I wrote an email messaging system that triggers off IBM Systems Automation trapped msgs- runs clists which invoke a proc invoking SMTP with custom msgs and userids as per msg. However, any triggering off msgs would depend upon the msgs being written to the console and I do not think that the IEF142I msg containing the condition code could or should be outputted to a systems console. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Thompson, Steve Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2010 12:04 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Jim McAlpine Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2010 10:22 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC There are probably a number of ways to achieve the above but I'm looking for the best way.

IIRC, and it's been years since I've been involved in automation, you can catch the message, process it, and suppress the logging to console.

Re: Notify a user if a job ends with non zero RC
I think that with IBM SA, the msg has to first be routed to the console in order to be trapped. I have had problems trapping msgs which were being suppressed in the MPF list and had to un-supress them. But even if IEF142I could be trapped it would obviously have to be done for only a limited number of jobs. There are job scheduling products that keep track of condition codes and perform the requested actions.
