Hi All,
I have a requirement to connect to CA7 through REXX and check the status of the job. if it's flagging late which can be checked thru LQ,JOB=XXXXXXXX we need to page a group.
Here is the Rexx code I used:
| Code: |
/* REXX */
PARSE UPPER ARG 'LQ,JOB=XXXXXXXX'
RSLT = CAL2X2WA()
/* CA7_NODE = 'XXXXXXXX'*/
/* CA7_SSCT = 'TEST' */
/* CA7_DEBUG = 'Y; ' */
ADDRESS CA7 COMMAND
SAY 'RC =' RC
X = QUEUED()
SAY 'QUEUED() =' X
DO I = 1 TO X
PULL LINE
LINE2 = SUBSTR(LINE,2) /* STRIP CARRIAGE CONTROL CHAR */
SAY LINE2
END
RETURN
|
The o/p I am getting is:
| Code: |
RC = 8
QUEUED() = 0
|
Can someone please help me with this? |

I wonder why people keep hiding things
| Quote: |
| Code: |
ADDRESS CA7 COMMAND
SAY 'RC =' RC |
|
the snippet does... nothing
Address CA7 is a proper REXX construct
the simple <thing> COMMAND as coded does not mean anything
the return code 8 is certainly caused by some improper command passed to the ca7 Address environment
edited to add some more consideration
| Code: |
| PARSE UPPER ARG 'LQ,JOB=XXXXXXXX' |
what is the reason for the strange parse statement...
I tested it, strange enough it does not produce any error, but as expected it does not produce any useful result
please show evidence if it is not so
also up to the point where You issue the Address CA7 You do nothing related to the CA7 command You want to issue |

Thanks for the quick reply. Can you please help me with the correct command that needs to be used here?
| Code: |
ADDRESS CA7 Command
|
LQ,JOB=XXXXXXXX

I can only reply on the general syntax of the Address <thing>
Address <some_environment> <some string>
means simply that the <some string> thing after having been processed by rexx for the proper variable substituton
is passed to the specified <some_environment> CA7 in this case for further processing
the <some string> content is relevant/depends only to/from the <some_environment> conventions
why not read/understand/meditate on the proper CA7 manuals???
in this case You might try something along the line of
Address CA7 "LQ,JOB=XXXXXXXX"
but it would be wiser to follow my advice about the manuals
also reading the rexx manulas would be mora than helpful...
from what You posted, no offence meant, Your skills look a bit inadequate |

another concern
why reinvent the wheel, investigate the ca7 monitoring facilities, and it' s eMail capabilities
a much better way of spending time and resources!
as expected You will reply that You do not have the permissions to control/customize CA7 monitoring  |

Hello,
Posting this is a complete waste of everyone's time
If you want to tell us it didn't work, you also need to post what problem occurred. . . Was there an abend? Some error return code? Some unexpected result?
No matter. . . You still need to properly present your question/problem.
Suggest you spend some time learning the basics before trying to meet this requirement. We can help with technical questions/problems, but the forum cannot teach you. That will be your mission. |

There was no abend. After executing the utility it gave me the below message:
| Code: |
RC = 8
QUEUED() = 0
|
That's all I have and I had already posted this. I will keep trying it until I get it straight. Thanks. |

So, was your original post about the same code as in this link or are there 2 sets of code? Possibly, i misunderstood what you posted, but it looked like there was your original code and then the code at the link. . .
If there are 2 sets of code, do they both have the same problem (no, i didn't chase thru the "other" code to check)?
Did you run a trace? If not, do so - there are multiple forum topics that talk about running a trace of your rexx code. |

Thanks D!! Both the codes (in my post and link) are same and have the same problem and retrun the above output without any abend.
| Code: |
ADDRESS CA7 Command
|
I am not very sure of the above code as I didnt find ADDRESS CA7 as any of the environments which can be passed unlike TSO, ISPEXEC
etc.
I will try running the trace to get more details. |

| Have you confirmed with your site support group the values for ca7_node and ca7_ssct? These are modifiable at each site and may not be the values you think they are, and you may be required to specify them to get access to CA-7. You may also want to confirm that the CA Common Communications Interface is turned on at your site -- although I suspect the 8 RC indicates that you are communicating with it. |
