RELATED IDEAS

Please include the CPU Time Limit for a Job/Step in SMF Type 30

The CPU Time Limit in effect for a JobStep is not currently written to SMF Type30 at the end of the step.

While a job is running this information is available in the Address Space Control Block (ASCBJSTL) and can be displayed or even modified by tools such as OMEGAMON.

However the information is not retained after the JobStep completes. This information would be very useful after the fact to see the CPU time limit in effect for a JobStep.

This enhancement request is to include the information in ASCBJSTL in the SMF Type30 Subtype 4 record written at the end of the JobStep.

An additional consideration would be how to best deal with the Job CPU time Limit (as specified on the JOB statement) and whether this can also be catered for in the RFE
