4 Job Output
This chapter details the procedures you follow to use SNA NRJE to
receive output from jobs you have submitted to your host system.
The topics discussed are as follows:
• Job output handling, including a number of general considerations
that apply to all output received from the host.
• Job management, by which final destination of output can be
controlled when a job is submitted for transmission to the host.
• Output management, by which the final destination of output can be
controlled through the use of a Lookup Table.
• Handling spooled output.
• Handling unsolicited output.
Output from a job can be received from a host whenever communication
is established between an NRJE workstation and a host.
NOTE If you are connected to a VSE/POWER host system, all output must be
requested. That is, a VSE/POWER command, START LST
n , class must
be issued either from the console (if it is owned) or in your transmitted
file before the first VSE/POWER JECL or VSE JCL JOB card.
Submitting this command allows output data sets to be transmitted via
the VSE/POWER list task, LST
n . The list tasks for VSE/POWER control
printer output entering the list queue. Similarly, for punch output, a
punch task must be started (START PUN
n , class ) to get the output to be
returned to your NRJE workstation.
class is an alphabetic character
indicating output class to be handled by the started device. Multiple
classes can be specified in a single command. See the IBM publication
VSE/POWER Remote Entry User’s Guide for additional information.
Note that if the command is issued from the console mode, you must
precede it with the host console command prefix as configured in the
NMMGR Workstation Data screen. If the command is embedded in a
submitted job stream, you must precede it with the character string
* ∆ ..∆ where ∆ is a required space.
