Re: CPYSPLF with Duplicate jobs

[Vinay Gavankar <vinaygav@xxxxxxxxx>]

We are running v7r2. The job logs are spooling for the jobs I am interested
in.

During a 'release', after all files and programs are installed on
production system, a bunch of jobs get submitted, the names of which are
based on the project numbers being installed. One project number 'could'
have more than one job, and all those would be run with the same job name.

The requirement is to determine if all of the jobs ended with a End Code of
'0'. So we are copying the job log spool files and parsing them to
determine the end code.

I know it sounds crazy, as one would think that if any job went in MSGW,
someone would know, but seems they want this automated and not rely on
whoever answers the MSGW to report it.

Also, I searched as per Chuck's suggestion and was able to code the loop to
take care of duplicate jobs.

I would still be interested in knowing if the end result can be achieved
some other way.
