<h1 class="topictitle1">QHST job start and completion messages</h1>
<div><p>The system performs special formatting of the job start and job
completion messages.</p>
<p>For message CPF1124 (job start) and message CPF1164 (job completion), the
message data always begins in position 11 of the third record.</p>
<p>Job accounting provides more information than CPF1124 and CPF1164. For
simple job accounting functions, use the CPF1164 message.</p>
<p>Performance information is not displayed as text on message CPF1164. Because
the message is in the QHST log, users can write application programs to retrieve
this data. The format of this performance information is as follows.</p>
<p>The performance information is passed as a variable length replacement
text value. This means that the data is in a structure with the first entry
being the length of the data. The size of the length field is not included
in the length. The first data fields in the structure are the times and dates
that the job entered the system and when the first routing step for the job
was started. The times are in the format 'hh:mm:ss'. The separators are always
colons. The dates are in the format defined in the system value QDATFMT and
the separators are in the system value QDATSEP. The time and date the job
entered the system precede the job start time and date in the structure.</p>
<p>The time and date the job entered the system are when the system becomes
aware of a job to be initiated (a job structure is set aside for the job).
For an interactive job, the job entry time is the time the password is recognized
by the system. For a batch job, it is the time the <span class="cmdname">Batch Job (BCHJOB)</span> or <span class="cmdname">Submit
Job (SBMJOB)</span> command is processed. For a monitor job, reader or
writer, it is the time the corresponding start command is processed, and for
autostart jobs it is during the start of the subsystem.</p>
<p>Following the times and dates are the total response time and the number
of transactions. The total response time is in seconds and contains the accumulated
value of all the intervals the job was processing between pressing the Enter
key at the workstation and when the next display is shown. This information
is similar to that shown on the WRKACTJOB display. This field is only meaningful
for interactive jobs.</p>
<p>It is also possible in the case of a system failure or abnormal job end
that the last transaction will not be included in the total. The job end
code in this case would be a 40 or greater. The transaction count is also
only meaningful for interactive jobs other than the console job and is the
number of response time intervals counted by the system during the job.</p>
<p>The number of synchronous auxiliary I/O operations follows the number of
transactions. This is the same as the AUXIO field that appears on the WRKACTJOB
display except that this value is the total for the job. If the job ends
with a end code of 70, this value may not contain the count for the final
routing step. Additionally, if a job exists across an IPL (using a <span class="cmdname">Transfer
Batch Job (TFRBCHJOB)</span> command) it is ended before becoming active
following an IPL, the value is 0.</p>
<p>The final field in the performance statistics is the job type. Values for
this field are: </p>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">A</dt>
<dd>Automatically started job</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">B</dt>
<dd>Batch job</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">I</dt>
<dd>Interactive job</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">M</dt>
<dd>Subsystem monitor</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">R</dt>
<dd>Spooling reader</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">S</dt>
<dd>System job</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">W</dt>
<dd>Spooling writer</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">X</dt>
<dd>Start job</dd>
</dl>
<p>For messages in which the message data begins in a variable position, you
can access the message data by doing the following:</p>
<ul><li>Determine the length of the variables in the message. For example, assume
that a message uses the following five variables: <pre>Job name *CHAR 10
User name *CHAR 10
Job number *CHAR 6
Time *CHAR 8
Date *CHAR 8</pre>
<p>These variables are fixed in the first 42 positions of the
message data.</p>
</li>
<li>To find the location of the message data, consider that: <ul><li>The message always begins in position 11 of the second record.</li>
<li>The length of the message is stored in a 2-position field beginning at
position 111 of the first record. This length is stored in a binary value
so if the message length is 60, the field contains hex <samp class="codeph">003C</samp>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Then, by using the length of the message and the start position of
the message, you can determine the location of the message data.</p>

</ul>
