“Job Received Message” Parsing Algorithm
The algorithms used by NRJE to parse JES2 or JES3 “Job Received”
console messages are shown below. Output variables are
JobNumber ,
ReaderNumber , and JobName .
JES2 Algorithm
scan buffer for host'command'char;
if found and host'command'char followed by "HASP100" then begin
scan from buffer(0) for keyword "JOB"
skip trailing blanks;
move to JobNumber variable while numeric;
skip all blanks trailing "HASP100" string;
move 8 characters to JobName variable;
scan from jobname'position for period;
skip two characters and assign ReaderNumber variable;
end;
JES3 Algorithm
begin
scan for "IAT6101";
if found scan for "JOB";
if found skip trailing blanks;
move to JobNumber while numeric;
scan for string " IS ";
skip trailing blanks;
move to JobName for 8 characters;
ReaderNumber := 0; ! They are not in JES3 messages.
end;
NOTE If a “Job Received” message algorithm detects an IAT6101 message,
NRJE checks each active reader for a match with
JobName to associate
the
JobNumber with the correct job. If two jobs are active on two
readers at the same time with the same
JobName , correct output
routing cannot be guaranteed.
VSE/Power
Power does not send “Job Received” messages.
Banner Decode Parsing Algorithms
The algorithms used by NRJE to parse JES2 output banner pages are
shown below. JES3 obtains host job numbers from the spin number
field of the PDIR. No attempt is made by NRJE to decode output
banners from VSE/POWER.
