This occurred as a result of maintenance to system REXX, which introduced several enhancements, but causes a system REXX EXEC to run under JES2. For the time being, you are doing the correct thing, which is to cancel AXRxx (the xx suffix is not predictable), not FORCE AXR,ARM. When I installed th

I haven't worked with OPC/TWS for a while, but as I recall, a simple way to prevent two jobs from running at the same time, without JCL changes, is to specify that each operation requires exclusive control of a special resource, which can be any name you choose. On Tue, 6 Jul 2010 20:54:44 -0700,

We had a similar problem. If I remember correctly, JES2 for z/OS 1.7 has changed its internal reader processing, in that when a data set contains ASA control characters in column 1, JES2 no longer skips over these characters when receiving the records in an internal reader, but treats them as p

The trick is to restart at the step in question and specify "COND=(0,LE)" on the JOB card for each of the steps after this step. This will cause those steps to be bypassed. On Tue, 10 Apr 2007 11:49:42 -0500, Pommier, Rex R. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Doesn't this simply restart the job at
