How do I access data held on the JES spool?..

Answer / ed

Use the new JES/SDSF interface:

/* REXX */
IsfRC = isfcalls( "ON" )
if IsfRC <> 0
then do
say "RC" IsfRC "returned from isfcalls( ON )"
exit IsfRC
end
isfprefix = '*'
isfowner = 'BCA0I53'
isfcols = 'jobid tgnum tgpct pname'
isfsort = 'tgnum d'
address SDSF "ISFEXEC ST (ALTERNATE DELAYED"
say rc isfmsg
say isfmsg2.0
say isfmsg2.1
say isfmsg2.2
say isfmsg2.3
say isfmsg2.4
say isfmsg2.5
say isfrows 'rows returned from SDSF STATUS'
SAY isfcols
do i = 1 to 10
say i '-' jname.i'/'jobid.i tgnum.i tgpct.i pname.i
end
IsfRC = isfcalls( "OFF" )
exit

Answer / rainer bartosch

Held output (JES2 or JES3) can be captured by outtrapping
the output of the following command

"OUTPUT jobname PRINT(*) KEEP".

Use command HELP OUTPUT for more information.

Furthermore there are output tools you can buy like SDSF,
IOF, (E)JES, etc. But not all of these have got a rexx
interface.
