hi

1) What is CA-7 or CA-11 schedule? Explain?

2) IF lakhs of jobs are running, how can one find out abend and solve it?
If abend occurs ar 1000th job how can they restart the job. Whether frm 1000th job or 1st job.

3) how can one resolve soc-7,soc-4,sb37,sd37,se37 errors in
realtime?

Hi Karthi,

2) You can browse the file JESYSMSG in the spool area and find which one of the step haven returned condition code 0. Say if you find the codition code > 0 in step 1000 u can say that step has abended.

3) SOC7 and SOC4 can be resolved by looking to the CEEDUMP file in spool area and find the offset. Note the corresponding offset and take it to the compiler listing where u could find that one. The line number in which offset is found has caused the termination.
SB37, SD37, SE37 are due to the lack of the DASD space and Directory space . You find them and fix it,


SB37 Caused by lack of sufficient secondary space - AT END OF VOLUME

SD37 Caused by lack of sufficient secondary space
Reason Code: 04 - (04 IS THE ONLY POSSIBLE RETURN CODE ASSOCIATED WITH SD37) A DATASET OPENED FOR OUTPUT USED ALL THE PRIMARY SPACE, AND NO SECONDARY SPACE WAS REQUESTED. EITHER SPECIFY A LARGER PRIMARY QUANTITY OR ADD A SECONDARY QUANTITY TO THE REQUEST.

SE37 Caused by lack of space for PDS


Thanks and Regards,
Rick.

1)CA-7 is intended for production and operations personnel and for users with scheduling and operational responsibilities.It consists of system commands,workstation networK commands,workload balancing commands,forecasting,general inquiry facilities,workflow control,online and interface utilities.It uses a seperate terminal UCC7.

2)There is a Ca-7 command "LQ,ST=RSTR".
Those jobs which got abended will be moved to restart queue automatically.The above command lists all the jobs that is present in the restart queue.If you want to see all the jobs that are running actively then use the command "LACT".It will display all the jobs that are active in the queue.

If abend occurs at the 1000th job,they restart the 1000th job alone and not from the first job.Every job has a job name.Thru the job name we can identify the job that has got abended.Hence after solving the abend,you can restart the job(1000th job in your case).The other jobs will run in active queue and don't get disturbed by this job unless it has dependency over it.

queries,pls welcome.
