Deepak KM, don't tack on unrelated question on an old thread that has been idle for well over 2 years -- start a new thread. I've split this one for you.

Have you tried using the TSO HELP command for XMIT to find out what can be done? I just did so and there is information about sending to multiple desitnations provided.

Well, I tried this.. but no luck.. icon_sad.gif

Its sending to only one Id.. and in JESMSGLG, I can see something like this - "ESTIMATED CARDS EXCEEDED"

Code:


Rexx code, I used:-

queue "Subject: Hello"                         
queue "How are you "                           
queue "$$"                                                 
say " "             
                                     
Address TSO 'XMIT (XXXX.ABCDEF,XXXX.QWERTY) LINE($$)'

JESMSGLG:-

 -JOBNAME  STEPNAME PROCSTEP CCODE ELAPSED-TIME 
 -INITCHK           DELETE1      0     00:00:00 
 INITCHK  ESTIMATED  CARDS EXCEEDED             
 -INITCHK           INITCHK      0     00:00:11 
INITCHK - ENDED - TIME=13.35.18                 
 -INITCHK  ENDED.  NAME-INIT-CHECK         


I would really appreciate if anyone can help me out..icon_smile.gif

You need to show us the trace from your rexx exec and you also need to show message numbers from the joblog.

And does it work for only one user?

But, in that case It should not xmit to either of the IDs, right? .. Here I'm able to receive in one ID, while other is unsuccessful !

when XMIT/TRANSMITing <things> to multiple users the data into the spool is duplicated for each adressee

100 cards to 1 addressee ==> 100 <spool records>

100 cards to 1000 addressee ==> 100*1000 ==> 100.000 <spool records>

if the output limit was ( for example ) 50.000 You would succeed in xmitting things to 500 addressees

the <transmissions> completed before hitting the output limit were OK

again.... speak to Your support

all this is naturally described and searchable in the manuals

all can be started by googling for ESTIMATED CARDS EXCEEDED TSO XMIT

There is a link to Manuals at the top of THIS page. Click on it, find the TSO Command Reference manual, and start reading. You might even find this:
Quote:
1.96.2 TRANSMIT command operands


Note: If you specify either MSGDDNAME or MSGFILE, or MSGDATASET or MSGDSNAME, the TERMINAL operand is no longer the default.



(addressee[,addressee[, ...]])
specifies the information identifying the target user(s). You can combine one or more of the following: a node and user ID specified as node.user_id or node/user_id, a nickname, or a distribution list name. If you identify only one user as the addressee, you can omit the parentheses. See "NAMES data set function" in topic 1.96.10.
A maximum of 200 node/userid combinations and 200 nicknames may be specified, but the total number of addressees may not exceed 200.


You can read up on the NAMES data set function yourself -- this is a HELP forum, not a READ-THE-MANUAL-FOR-YOU forum.

You still have not shown the message number that I asked for. It is not clear who is setting the limit.

But sometimes, the limit is on the job. And you might be taking a default value. It may be as simple as setting a higher value in the JES2 statements.

I think your estimate is wrong. What are you using now? Try a higher value:
Code:
/*JOBPARM LINES=500


BTW, it looks like your job still ends with RC=0. Are you sure it does not work?

Well, well, well... glad news... it worked... icon_biggrin.gif

I was trying to send to my ID two times... ie., I gave both XMIT IDs as same,

Code:
XMIT (XXXX.ABCDEF,XXXX.ABCDEF)


I never thot REXX was too intelligent to figure it out that both are same IDs and will be sent only once... stupid me ! icon_biggrin.gif.. When I tried with different IDs, I was able to XMIT..

and, yes.. I mentioned earlier as I'm Xmitting to different IDs (as below)... which infact I thot was immaterial.. I expected it to XMIT twice to my IDs..

XMIT (XXXX.ABCDEF, XXXX.QWERTY)

So I believe, Rexx will not consider duplicate IDs while xmitting..


Special Thanks to all the moderators who came to help me out...

I tried with your suggestion by giving value to 5000, even though the files are XMITting to different IDs, I can still see the message in spool.. icon_sad.gif

nothing to do with rexx - probably all to do with xmit which is not rexx but something entirely different.

I cannot stress how important the message number is in problem determination. You are asking for help without providing essential details.

This is the third time I am asking for the message number.

Well, I don't want you to ask me for a 4th time icon_biggrin.gif .. but the thing is I'm getting this message in JESMSGLG not in JESYSMSG dataset.. I'm unable to see the message number as well.. anyway, I'm pasting the message here..

Code:
 
 IEF403I INITCHK - STARTED - TIME=08.46.36

 GSDMV21I -INITCHK           INITCHK      0     00:00:11     4

the message is right there in front of Your eyes.
Code:
$HASP375 INITCHK  ESTIMATED  CARDS EXCEEDED

the forum is not a manual reading service
read the messages and codes manuals for the $HASP375 message
and ...
speak with Your support.

if You keep spinning around topic is going to be locked very shortly

Code:

/*JOBPARM CARDS=500

How much information are you sending? If it is large, why would you be surprised by the result?
