How to notify two or more persons when submitting a job

Hi all,

In JCLs we have a Keyword known as NOTIFY in order to inform a particular user about the running of the job. Is there any way by which a single job can notify more than one person at a time??????

Hi !

The notify parameter in JCL is for one userid. You could append a new
JobStep where you issue a TSO SEND command via IKJEFT01 to other UserId's.

Hi anvit !

Sorry, i'm not a work, so i have no complete example to copy here.
But if i'm not blockheaded, it's like:

//Step99 EXEC IKJEFT01
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *
SEND 'your message' USER(UserId-1)
SEND 'your message' USER(UserId-2)
SEND 'your message' USER(UserId-2)
/*

Regards, merry christmas an a happy new year

Anvit...

In case you are not familiar with this... Alongwith what Mr. UmeySan suggested, you might need to code two steps at the end of the job one for Successfull completion of the job and other for Not.
