JES2 - no automatic Reconfiguration driven after Site Outage

After a planned SITE1 outage we saw that JES2 Reconfiguration was started driven by member "x", but just a few seconds later member "x" was QUIESCED as it was running in SITE1. Because of that we see that member "Y" has taken over with RECONFIGURA...

$HASP1551 LIST Messaging for HTTP_NOTIFY

When JOBDEF is coded with HTTP_NOTIFY=DISABLED and a z/OSMF request specifies X-IBM-Notification-URL, JES2 issues message $HASP1551 even though notification will not be possible. $HASP1551 LIST -- Send HTTP notification when job is READY $HASP1551...

JES2 - Improve reaction to PROCLIB moves and Open/Close

In the above IBM Case we described a problem on one of our customer's system, whereby a PROC(00) data set was moved by the customer to a new volume and the catalogue entry adapted (DELETE & DEFINE NONVSAM). We do realise this is not a good thi...

SA JES2 SPOOL monitor to detect unusual growth

In normal operation, JES2 spool can fill up and notification is received when we hit the JES2 warning level. The warning level we currently have set is 80% and we have SPOOLSHORT commands in-place to reduce this. However, what we do not have is vi...

JES2 JOBGROUP protection

JES2 jobgroups deliver easy possibilities for basic dependency definition of jobs. Anyway, the access to the use of jobgroups shouldn't be allowed for anyone. It should be possible to protect the access to JES2 jobgroups by a RACF ressource like i...

Support JESLOG parameter on job card with the master subsystem

We execute our Netview STCs under the master subsystem rather than under JES2 and they can stay up for months at a time. The JESMSGLG can grow to several million lines which consumes a non-insignificant amount of spool space. We don't need that in...

Extend JES2 SSI to return INTRDR settings like AUTH and CLASS

Please add an API extension (presumably in SSI 82) to be able to obtain the current JES2 INTRDR (template) settings as modified by $T INTRDR. Specifically AUTH is urgently needed, but more settings like CLASS are welcome.
