<h1 class="topictitle1">Job log pending</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>The job log pending state has been available for many years. When
|
||
|
|
a job's job log attribute is *PND, no job log is produced. With the release
|
||
|
|
of V5R4 enhancements have been made to both iSeries Navigator and the character-based
|
||
|
|
interface so that you can now control how and under what circumstances the
|
||
|
|
job log for a specific job will be produced. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This new feature is useful when you place the system into a restricted
|
||
|
|
state. When the system goes into a restricted state, subsystems end and a
|
||
|
|
potential of thousands of jobs can end at once. This in turn can create a
|
||
|
|
large burden on the output resources. By preventing the production of these
|
||
|
|
job logs, you can significantly reduce the impact on these resources. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Another example of when you can use this new feature is during a communications
|
||
|
|
failure. Perhaps there are many similar jobs that produce the same job log
|
||
|
|
error messages. You can set the job log to not produce a spool file for all
|
||
|
|
of the jobs. Then if there happens to be a communications failure, you can
|
||
|
|
use the Work with Job Log (<span class="cmdname">WRKJOBLOG</span>) command to determine
|
||
|
|
which logs to print. You can also use the Work with Job Logs (WRKJOBLOG) screen
|
||
|
|
to manage job logs.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Jobs might be in a job log pending state due to the workings of the Power
|
||
|
|
Down System (PWRDWNSYS) command. The iSeries™ Navigator user interface shows
|
||
|
|
the status "Completed - Job log pending" for these jobs. This is a subset
|
||
|
|
of character-based interface status of *OUTQ. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Taking advantage of these enhancements can help you to reduce the number
|
||
|
|
of job logs produced and thereby reduce the contention for resources. This
|
||
|
|
can result in improved system performance. </p>
