If anyone knows how to check the system state. I mean which system is up and which one is down.

Thanks,

I think that we might need a lot more information on exactly what you want to achieve before anyone could give you a valid answer.

I have two system A and B. Now i want to check which is one is Up i.e A or B

If system A is up i want to do some processing on system A or if system B is up do some other processing on system B.

I guess we can achieve this by checking Checking System state.

But i dont know how to do it.

Thanks,
Jamshir

Two systems - in a parallel sysplex environment, a loosely coupled sysplex, or are they both stand alone ?

If they are in a sysplex then you need to use the ROUTE XEQ statement to route the JCL to execute on the required system id

Code: /*ROUTE XEQ Nodename
