Hi,
My requirement is to submit a batch job from the PC and get back the status of the job using ftp commands.
I was successfull in submitting a job on the mainframe using the following commands
ftp IP Address
User ID
Password
quote site filetype=jes
put jcl.txt
Then when I try to view the status of the job submitted using the command
dir
it displays the following message
No Jobs found on the Held queue
Further we tried to retrieve the status using the "get" command
i.e.
GET JOBnnnnn
but this gives the following error
Error opening local file JOBnnnnn
>JOBnnnnn: Permission denied.
Kindly help.
Thanks & Regards,
Arun |

I believe you shoud start by :
having a jobname of youruserid + one char
it should solve your pbm. |

Hi,
Thanks for your reply but the JOBnnnnn refers to job number and I tried the GET command with the jobname but it still gives me the same error.
Regards,

your list does not even show any job output how do you want to retrieve anything ?
1 your job submitted via ftp should have a jobname of your userid +1 char
then the process shopuld work ok.
(it works at my shop, I can see all job with myuserid+1 char and am able to GET any of them) |

Hi,
To make my point more clear here is the series of commands used by me and the results
ftp> Connected to ********.
open ********
220-FTPD1 IBM FTP CS V2R8 at S01MFP02, 13:33:22 on 2004-02-04.
220 Connection will close if idle for more than 5 minutes.
User (********:(none)):
331 Send password please.
230 FO is logged on. Working directory is "FO.".
ftp> ftp>
quote site FILETYPE=JES RECFM=F LRECL=80 BLKSIZE=80
200 Site command was accepted
ftp> put .\jcl.txt
200 Port request OK.
125 Sending Job to JES internal reader FIXrecfm 80
250-It is known to JES as JOB08662
250 Transfer completed successfully.
918 bytes sent in 0,00 seconds (918000,00 Kbytes/sec)
ftp> dir
200 Port request OK.
125 List started OK
No jobs found on Held queue
250 List completed successfully.
29 bytes received in 0,00 seconds (29000,00 Kbytes/sec)
Hope this makes the things more clear. The jobname is FOITCMD in which the first two characters are is my the user ID.
Thanks & Regards,
Arun |

Thanks for your suggestion, it worked.
I found that the JESINTERFACELEVEL=1 for our system and with interface level the job name has to be the userid and 1 character. Hence it didnt show my job as it had more than one character after my user ID. To be able to use longer JOB name the JESINTERFACELEVEL should be set to 2
One additional requirement is it possible to retrieve just the return code of the job so as to understand the success of the job. |

Hello folks.
JESINTERFACELEVEL 2 provides a lot of additional functions.
To find out what JESINTERFACELEVEL the server is at:
Logon to the FTP server
Issue "QUOTE SITE FILETYPE=JES"
Issue "QUOTE STAT"
===============================================
The requirement about retrieving the return code of a job would also get satisfied under JESINTERFACELEVEL 2
Under JESINTERFACELEVEL 2, issue "DIR"
The output can be filtered by setting variables JESJOBNAME, JESSTATUS and JESOWNER
===============================================
JESINTERFACELEVEL is set in the FTP Data file
Most of the shops have SYSFTPD DD card in the FTP started task JCL pointing to the FTP Data file
(If you do not have the DD coded, look up the IP configuration guide to find the dataset search order)
The default for JESINTERFACELEVEL is 1
DO NOT set JESINTERFACELEVEL to 2 unless you have proper spool access security in place |

was anybody able to look for the answer to this? I was able to verify that the job was transferred successfully. But I want to know if there is a way to check if the job didn't complete. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!  |

Trying the same as arunramakrishnan did his above post. I found out that JESINTERFACELEVEL = 1 in my server using "QUOTE STAT" .
How do i go about changing this JESINTERFACELEVEL to 2. Is it advisable to change this?
Your help is appriciated.
Thanks,
Ganeshprasanna |

Add to your FTP job:
| Code: |
//SYSFTPD DD *
JESINTERFACELEVEL=2
/*
|
However, unless your systems support group has done the JES and security changes to support this, your changes will not work. This is site dependent and you must contact your systems support people for help. |
