You had asked something similar in April. Did you ever follow the suggestion posted by Don? here: ibmmainframes.com/viewtopic.php?t=68588&highlight=savers

Yes i applied that suggestion and it worked but this time my log capturing step have to wait until the job is available in savers . I using wait time logic here to wait for some time but it is suggested by my seniors it is not good practice to use.

I wanted to achieve this through rexx that it should try searching that job in savers and once it is available it should writ in a data set.

Hope you got my point.

Can you be more clear about what you want? In your post you mention:

Search here and internet for $AVRPULL, $AVRS, $AVRTAPE

I do not think the manuals for $AVRS are online. Since you have the product, you should try to get a copy of the manuals.
