Diagnostic information
z/OS jobs
submitted by IBM Workload Scheduler can
fail to complete for a number of reasons. The step in the submission
process in which a job fails determines how much information is available
and is provided by IBM Workload Scheduler as
follows:
- If a job fails before it is actually initiated (usually the
result
of a JCL or security problem), IBM Workload Scheduler recognizes
that it no longer exists, and marks it as abend in the
conmancommand line displays. No further information is provided. - If a job
fails after being started, IBM Workload Scheduler:
- Obtains its condition code and user abend code, if any
- Writes them to the job standard list file
- Marks the job as abend in
the
conmancommand line or Dynamic Workload Console displays
Job standard lists can be displayed with the
conmancommand line and with the Dynamic Workload Console.
