$G R, OUT - Request another node to route job output
Function
To route normal output for a job at another node to an alternate location.
Syntax
Parameters
- D=
- Specifies
a destination for a piece of output. Indicates that output sent to
the specified destinations can be selected. The value for all routing
numbers can range from 1 to 32767. Use parentheses if more than one
route code is specified. For specification requirements, see Route codes.
- LOCAL|ANYLOCAL
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the local node.
- Nnnnn|nodename
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the specified node(s). You can specify a node using the decimal node identifier or an EBCDIC nodename.
- destid
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the specified node(s). You can specify this location by an alias for the name of a node. If destid is specified alone, it refers to both the node and the remote.
- NnnnnRmmmm|node.remote
- Indicates routing to the remote Rmmmm at the node Nnnnn. Rmmmm can also be specified as RMmmmm or RMTmmmm.
- Ummmm
- Indicates special local routing.
- node.destid
- Indicates a destination at the specified node. The destid refers to both the node and the remote. The node specified in the destid must be the same as the node portion of the route code. If the number of the remote is reassigned, you can use the destid to send to this node.
- remote
- Indicates routing to a remote. Remote can be specified in any
of the following ways:
- LOCAL|ANYLOCAL
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the local node.
- Rmmmm
- Indicates routing to the specified remote. Rmmmm can also be specified as RMmmmm or RMTmmmm.
- destid
- Indicates routing to a destid referring to a remote.
For more information about specifying userids as remotes, refer to Route codes.
If you specify Nnnnn[Rnnnn], Nnnnn is converted to an 8-byte EBCDIC node name and, optionally, Rnnnn is right-padded with blanks to create an 8-byte EBCDIC remote name (it is overridden by the R= parameter, if specified). This destination name is placed in the global route command record for the receiving node.
If you specify an installation-defined name for a destination, the name is right-padded with blanks and then placed in the global route command record for the receiving node. The symbolic destination names are validated and converted to internal route codes at the receiving node, not the node at which the $G R command is entered.
- J|JOBn or S|STCn or T|TSUn
- The job ID (batch job (Jn), started task (Sn), or time-sharing user (Tn)) assigned to the job by its originating node. This operand is necessary only if more than one job exists with the specified job name.
- ‘jobname'
- The name of the job for which output is rerouted. The name must appear as coded on the JOB statement and must be enclosed in apostrophes. If the job did not originate at the sending node (or have default print and/or punch output for the sending node), the destination node must have the sending node flagged as having network authority.
- Nnnnn|name|destid
- The destination node to which JES2 sends this command. You can specify this location through an alias for the name of a node. The destination node must have the sending node flagged as having job authority.
- O=
- The node
on which the job originated. You must specify this parameter if the
originating node is not the node at which this $G R command is entered.
If you fail to identify the originating node, JES2 issues the $HASP693
message which indicates the job was not found. In addition, the originating
node must have authorized this node for network commands or the $HASP693
message will be issued. For more information about authorizing nodes,
refer to the $T NODE command. The valid specifications:
- LOCAL|ANYLOCAL
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the local node.
- Nnnnn|nodename
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the specified node(s). You can specify a node using a decimal node identifier from 1 to 32767 or an EBCDIC nodename.
- destid
- Indicates that jobs are to be run at the specified node(s). You can specify this location by an alias for the name of a node.
Note: This parameter requires that the destination node has the sending node flagged as having network authority. - OUT
- Job output is rerouted.
- R=Rnnnn|nodename|destid
- If you
specified a symbolic name for a node on the D= parameter, this parameter
allows you to specify a remote destination off that node. Whatever
is entered is right-padded with blanks to create an 8-byte EBCDIC
remote name, that is placed in the global route command record. Validation
and conversion to a remote destination route code is performed at
the receiving node. Note: This parameter overrides a remote specification on the D= parameter.
Authority Required
This command requires job authority. The description of the $T RDRnn command explains how to ensure that the authority of the appropriate MVS™ system command group is assigned.
This command requires update security access authority. For a description of assigning command input authority, see z/OS JES2 Initialization and Tuning Guide.
For the authority required at the destination node, see Displaying and controlling jobs at other nodes.
Processing Considerations
- The receiving node ignores the $G R command if the specified job is currently being received on a reader, being received or transmitted on an NJE or RJE line, or if its output is TSO held output.
- If you do not know the job ID of the job with this jobname, use the $G D command to display the job IDs of all jobs with this jobname at a specific node.
- The $T NODE,Auth= command sets the command authority for a specified node.
Scope
Network-wide. This command only needs to be issued from a single member; the command has an effect across the entire MAS.
Messages
The $HASP000 message indicates the command was accepted.
Examples
1 $g r n4,out,'myjob',d=n3r1
$HASP000 OK
2 $g r denver,out,'joba', d=newyork, r=broadway
$HASP000 OK
JES2 sends a global route command record through the network to the node named DENVER. That node routes all normal output for the job named JOBA to the remote workstation with the installation-defined name BROADWAY on the node with the installation-defined name NEWYORK.
