Running SDSF in Batch

Hi,

My requirement is to dump the details of a “dd” of a jobid:

I tried to achieve this in batch SDSF ,

//BSDSF EXEC PGM=SDSF
//ISFIN DD *
ST
OWNER USERID
PRE USERID*
FILTER JOBID EQ JOB39199
FIND JOB39199
++?
FIND <ddname >
++S
PRINT ODSN 'MYOUT.SAMPLE.OUTPUT' * OLD
PRINT 1 9999
PRINT CLOSE
END
EXIT
//ISFOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*

But , I am not getting the sysout details of the jobid JOB39199 in the dataset 'MYOUT.SAMPLE.OUTPUT'. I got rc 0 but the file is empty.

Please help me on this!

You will have to trace the results of your SDSF commands. Take a look at ISFOUT and see how SDSF responed to each command.

Are there any messages next to the command line?

Another question: What is "OWNER USERID" that appears in your code?

Hi O,

No messages there .. and i just masked the actual userid by giving USERID. OWNER Z00****
PRE Z00***** .

Pls let me know if you need more info.

thanks

Hi,

i just removed the filter command from the ISFIN *

And executed code ( rc 0) and got the INVALID COMMAND
in the IFSOUT dd's 3rd page

SDSF STATUS DISPLAY ALL CLASSES INVALID COMMAND
COMMAND INPUT ===> ++? SCROLL ===> PAGE

If you use FILTER, I don't see the reason for OWNER & PREFIX commands...

Hi,

Now i removed the owner and prefix from my ifsin *.

i think the command ++? is not working here .. it says INVALID COMMAND
..

Any inputs on this !

Does the FILTER command worked as expected? Do you see the job in ISFOUT after FILTER?

Hi O,

yes, filter is working and can see the exact job in the ifsout dd.

here i am getting the ++? in the command line withe the message invalid command.

OK, next step. Was the FIND command successful?

Hi O,

It is not working.. i can see the error message NO CHARS 'Z001359' FOUND
.

i think because of that only '++?' is not working...

How to solve this..

Hi O,

Sorry for the delayed reply..

That is my id ...(not the real user id. just using the dummy one to post in the forum)..

i think FIND will work only for the job name. can it be used for jobid...

No, FIND is for searching any string in most SDSF panels. Remember that "++?" must be preceded by successful FIND (which places the cursor against a record in the panel).
