RE: Advanced Job scheduler

[<lgoodbar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't know about email, but AJS can interoperate with paging systems.
Our AJS talks to Messenger Plus to send notifications to cell phones,
pagers, etc.

Here is help on AJS "Pager Recipient Abnormal" V5R2:

Pager Recipient Abnormal - Help

Specifies the pager recipient who is to receive abnormal completion
messages for the job that you are adding or changing.  This field is
used in conjunction with the specified paging package commands.

    Note:  A paging product must be installed before this feature may be
    used.

The possible values are:

*JOBCTL
    You are using the pager recipient specified in the job controls.

*NONE
    No pager recipient is assigned to receive messages when this job
    completes abnormally.

recipient-name
    Specify the name of a recipient who is to receive messages from the
    job when it completes abnormally.

                                                                  Bottom


The AJS job defaults sets up pager groups for notifications. Here is
ours for BRMS integration:

Display Job Defaults

 Job default  . . . . . . . . . . . . :   BRMS

 Application  . . . . . . . . . . . . :   BRMS
 Schedule code  . . . . . . . . . . . :   *DAILY
 Calendar . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :   *NONE
 Holiday calendar . . . . . . . . . . :   *NONE
 Fiscal calendar  . . . . . . . . . . :   *NONE
 Remote location name . . . . . . . . :   *LCL
 Pager recipient normal . . . . . . . :   ITSCHED2
  Pager message . . . . . . . . . . . :     Backup Complete
 Page recipient abnormal  . . . . . . :   ITSCHED
  Pager message . . . . . . . . . . . :     *COMP
 Use job default commands . . . . . . :   *NONE


We followed Messenger Plus' documentation for integrating their package
with AJS. 

In V5R4, this changed somewhat, here is the help for "Notivication
Recipient Abnormal" (The parameter changed.)

Notification Recipient Abnormal - Help

Specifies the notification recipient who is to receive abnormal
completion messages for the job that you are adding or changing.
This field is used in conjunction with the notification command.

    Note:  SMTP information must be specified before this feature
    may be used with the Send Distribution using JS (SNDDSTJS)
    command.

The possible values are:

*JOBCTL
    You are using the notification recipient specified in the job
    controls.

*ONCALL
    Only recipients that are on-call will receive the message.

*NONE
    No notification recipient is assigned to receive messages when
    this job completes abnormally.

recipient-name
    Specify the name of a recipient who is to receive messages from
    the job when it completes abnormally.

                                                                  Bottom

The help for SNDDSTJS requires Navigator to configure its components
(recipients, escalation lists).
