PM54364: CLNO FOR EXTERNALLY SUBMITTED JOB WHEN AUTO RETRIEVAL IS ACTIVE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In TWSz V8R6, when RCLOPTS JOBLOGRETRIEVAL(ONERROR) or
  RESTARTINFORETRIEVAL(ONERROR) is set, TRACK ONLY jobs (scheduled
  but not submitted by TWSz - defined SUBMIT=NO) that end in error
  are set to a CLNO error status even though they are defined as
  CLEANUP TYPE = NONE.
  .
  This occurs unless the JCL for these jobs includes the TIVDSTxx
  OUTPUT statements which are added to TWSz-submitted jobs by the
  controller at submit time.
  .
  If a job is defined as CLEANUP TYPE = NONE, no attempt should be
  made to retrieve the JOBLOG or OPERINFO for that job if it ends
  in error.

  * RECOMMENDATION: APPLY THE PTF FIXING THIS APAR               *
  ****************************************************************
  When RCLOPTS JOBLOGRETRIEVAL(ONERROR) or
  RESTARTINFORETRIEVAL(ONERROR) is set, jobs scheduled
  but not submitted by TWSz, that end in error are set
  to a CLNO error status.
  

Problem conclusion

• When operations are defined with SUBMIT=NO, the jobs are
  scheduled but not submitted by TWSz, so the joblog copy for
  the datastore is not built. For these jobs, the
  RCLOPTS JOBLOGRETRIEVAL(ONERROR) and
  RESTARTINFORETRIEVAL(ONERROR)
  parameters cannot be considered.
  A check on the SUBMIT=N/Y bit is added, to avoid the automatic
  joblog or operinfo request.
