TRKPARR6 - Maintain Job Tracking Parameters

Fields

Parameter	Default	Description
P/S (Prefix or Suffix wild cards)	blank	When the Job Tracking Configuration (Menu 1, option 7) allows for the use of wild card characters in the IBM i Job ID object names, each field must specify either a "P" or an "S" in its corresponding row under this column in order to engage the wild card search logic for each filter field that uses the question marks as wild cards. If this field is left blank, any question marks that appear as part of the object name will be managed as if they are only a part of the name and they will not be replaced by the original characters specified in the SBMJOB command that was intercepted.
Job Name	IBM i Name Rules (Refer to IBM i NameRules)	The name portion of an IBM i job. The IBM i full job names (per instance of a job) include the name, the submitting user name, and a unique job number. The name portion is common to as many instances of the same job definition as may be executed. The IBM i permits more than one instance of the same job name to be executed concurrently.
Job user ID	*ALL	The IBM i User Profile that owns/executes the job.
Jobd Name	*ALL	Job Description - a system object that defines how a job is to be processed. When a specific name is used in this field it qualifies an IBM i job for selection for tracking or queuing.
Jobd Library	*ALL	The library within DB2 where the job description is located. When a specific name is used in this field it qualifies an IBM i job for selection for tracking or queuing.
Jobq Name	*ALL	Job queue - a system object that stores job requests while they are waiting to be executed, or as long as they are in hold status. When a specific name is used in this field it qualifies an IBM i job for selection for tracking or queuing.
Jobq Library	*ALL	The library within DB2 where the job queue is located. When a specific name is used in this fied it qualifies an IBM i job for selection for tracking or queuing.
Schedule Name	AdHoc	The OpCon schedule that the job is part of. It must match a schedule in the OpCo database.
Schedule Date	CURRENT	Required, used to select from among multiple instances of an OpCon schedule, such as when a yesterday schedule remains incomplete after today's schedule is already active. Various values may be used in this field:
	Note: If this field is left blank, OpCon assumes CURRENT.	Actual schedule date, for example, 2011-02-07 which is a date in ISO format. Any date format accepted by OpCon may be used, but ISO is recommended.
		Any OpCon date special value, such as CURRENT, LATEST, EARLIEST. Other values may be used, although most would not apply when a tracked job is being added to a schedule. To insert special values that are longer than this field allows, use a Dynamic Variable.
		Dynamic Variable: Use F8 to obtain a list of available Dynamic Variables. The Dynamic Variable must appear in token form (use the F8 selection method to view the value format for this environment), e.g., {DYNVAR}. Dynamic variables may be a good way to assure that the actual OpCon Schedule Build Date is always used, which is important if it is past midnight of the day when the schedule was built at the time when a tracked or queued job will be added.
Frequency	Blank	The OpCon frequency designation. May be left blank. If blank, OpCon would assume the LATEST active schedule if there is more than one schedule that matches the Schedule Name and Schedule Date.
Track Type	Q	T = Tracking: OpCon support, no parameter overrides or dependencies
		Q = Queuing: OpCon support, with parameter overrides, dependencies
		P = Passive: OpCon status display only; no interrupt of SBMJOB process
		A = Auto-Tracking: used only for Allow or Prevent auto-tracking at LSAM
Aut-track sub-jobs	Blank	Automatic Tracking Control:
		A = Allow auto-tracking
		P = Prevent auto-tracking
		blank = does not specifically allow or prevent auto-tracking

Delete Job Tracking Parameters

tip

Format of Confirm Delete list will vary to match current <F11> sort sequence of List display.

TRKPARR3 - Job Tracking Parameters: Confirm Delete of Records

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Job track parameters (#1) > option 4=Delete

Fields

Refer to field descriptions for Job Tracking Parameters list display, above.

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the list of job tracking names and returns to the menu.
F12=Cancel: Quits the list of job tacking names and returns to the menu.
F14=Confirm: Press this function key to confirm that all the records appearing in the list should be deleted. If any are incorrect, press F12=Cancel instead and change which records are marked for deletion with option 4.

Job Track Logs (WRKTRKJOB)

LSALOGR1 - Job Track Logs

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Job track logs (#2)
From Command Entry, enter the command WRKTRKJOB. This command may be entered from any command entry line, as long as the library QGPL is in the interactive job's library list. It is not necessary to set the library list to an LSAM environment, or to enter the LSAM menu system, because this command is able to detect which LSAM environment has control over job tracking. (When there are multiple LSAM environments, only one environment at a time can control job tracking.)

Fields

Parameter	Default	Description
Search content		To quickly search for a particular job, enter the first characters of the job name, or any other tracked job log content value, and press <Enter>. Any value that appears on the log detail display may be searched for, even though not all values appear in the list display.
Opt	None	<Tab> to a row in the table and enter an option.
Job Name	IBM i Name Rules (Refer to IBM i Rules	The name portion of an IBM i job. The IBM i full job names (per instance of a job) include the name, the submitting user name, and a unique job number.
		The name portion is common to as many instances of the same job definition as may be executed.
		The IBM i permits more than one instance of the same job name to be executed concurrently.
		Sort name: When F11 is used to change the sort order of the display to Job Name (the default), the list shows all entries for a job together regardless of date. The entries within one job will be sorted in descending order according to the date (last entry first). The column heading for Job Name will be pink when the list is sorted by name.
Number		The IBM i job number. The job number helps keep entries from the same job together on the list display when the list is sorted by name, regardless of the time of the entry.
Date		The date when the job executed, or will execute.
		[Sort date]: When F11 is used to change the sort order of the display to Date, the list shows all entries in descending date order (last entry first), regardless of job name. The column heading for Date will be pink with the list is sorted by date.
Time		The time when the job executed, or will execute.
Svty (Severity)	00 -- 99	The completion code reported by the job, (i.e., the severity of the completion message).
Sts (Status)		An SMA-defined status code that indicates the state of the pending or completed job. Refer to the table below, under option 5=Display, for a list of all possible status code values.
Msg ID (Message ID)	*NONE	An IBM i message identifier (comprised of 3 letters followed by 4 digits).
		Definitions for message IDs may normally be found in message files stored in the DB2/400 database. SMA* messages may be found in message file SMAMSGF.
		Using option 5=Display details will usually reveal some text that explains the error message ID.

Options

4=Cancel job: Set job tracking to cancelled status and prevent job from being released. Option 4 causes the program to branch to the same job detail display as option 5, but showing a red function key instruction at line 22, requiring that F23=CNLJOB be pressed to confirm the cancel job action.
5=Display detail: Shows job definition details and any error or status message information.
6=Release job: Manually release job from LSAM tracking (using IBM i SBMJOB) either before OpCon releases the job or when OpCon has rejected the job tracking request (message ID SMA0014).

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the tracked jobs list and returns to the menu.
F5=Refresh: Retrieves the latest tracked job information and updates the display.
F11=Sort date/Sort name: Changes the sorted order of the list display. The column heading of the current sort order is displayed in pink color, and the function key name changes each time <F11> is pressed.
F12=Cancel: Quits the tracked jobs list and returns to the menu.
F16=Search next: When a value is entered in the Search content field, or a value shows in pink below this field from the last search request, pressing <F16> finds the next (or first) occurrence of the value specified. F16 is useful for finding each desired log entry when there is more than one log entry that satisfies the search request. When a value is first typed into the Search content field, <F16> works the same as the <Enter> key for starting a new search. However, only <F16> may be used to continue a search past the first entry that satisfies the search criteria.
F17=Top: Causes the display to jump to the top of the list. This is the equivalent of the first record in the file, but the sort order controls which records are listed first.
F18=Bottom: Causes the display to jump to the last entry in the list. This is the equivalent of the last record in the log file, but the sort order controls which records are listed last. This function key is very helpful when the file is big.
F24=More keys: Toggles the function key legend between the two different lists of function keys that are available for this display.

Option 5 = Display (Job Track Log Detail)

LSALOGR2 - Job Track Log Detail

Sched date: The OpCon Schedule Date, which may be an OpCon special date keyword or a date, typically in ISO format (CCYY-MM-DD).
Frequency: The OpCon frequency code assigned to control when a job executes.
Track Type:
- T = Track
- Q = Queue
Status: The last reported job status (from the LSAM job tracking master file). May not be the same as the Log status, above. Refer to the table, below, of possible job status values. The status code is followed by text that represents the meaning of the code.
SAM job name: The name assigned by OpCon to this job as it appears on a SAM Schedule. For tracked/queued jobs, this name is usually the same as the IBM i job name.
SAM job number: A unique number assigned by OpCon to track each job it monitors.

Job Tracking Status Codes

Code	Text	Meaning	Permitted actions
E	ERROR_TE1	OpCon has rejected job tracking request and has notified the LSAM with a (TE1) transaction.	Release job, Cancel job
F	TX1-FAILED	Indicates the LSAM was unable to process the OpCon job start request. Refer to the LSAM diagnostic tools for jobs that fail to start, described in Components and Operation.
I	SAM_QUEUED_TI1	OpCon has received a job queuing request, and has responded with SAM job information. (Does not apply to type Tracked.)	Release job, Cancel job
K	USER_CANCELLED	Option 4=Cancel job was used to permanently prevent this tracked job from being released. (Cancelled jobs cannot be recovered. The requested task must be submitted as a new job.)	None
M	MANUAL_RLS	Option 6=Release job was used to manually submit the job to IBM i for processing. Manually released jobs may not be able to take advantage of any OpCon job master options, such as job-specific message management or spool file management, if a job was released while it was in status "I". Jobs that were at status "E" would not receive any support from OpCon because they were not recognized by OpCon.	None
P	PASSIVE_TRACK	Indicates this job was processed using the True Passive tracking method.
R	LSAM_RLS_TX1	The LSAM has released the job to IBM i upon receiving a start job transaction (TX1) from OpCon.	None
T	LSAM_TRACKING	The LSAM has recognized the job and stored it for tracking, but a response has not yet been received from OpCon.	Release job, Cancel job
X	SAM_RLS_TX1	OpCon has sent a start job transaction (TX1) but the LSAM has not actually released the job to IBM i. This is normally a transient job status, so the log entry just records the time when this action happened.	None

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the job details display and returns to the menu.
F12=Cancel: Quits the job details display and returns to the list of tracked jobs.
F13=More CMD: Proceeds to a display of some Job Track Log Detail with an extended area reserved to show all (or much more of) the Call command text.

Job Track Log Detail -- View LDA

Pressing <F15> from the Job Track Log Detail display provides access to a display of the captured job's local data area (LDA) content. This screen is a list of the 15 lines (1024 character) of the LDA content, but the screen may show a "no records" message if the LDA was either not captured or is completely blank. Function key \<F10> may be used to toggle the display between a character-only mode that shows the whole LDA on one screen (but non-display characters in the LDA will appear as blanks), and a hex mode that shows the hexadecimal equivalents for each LDA byte position in over/under mode.

LSALOGR6 - Job Track Log Detail - LDA Content (2 Views)

Fields

Ruler/Character number: A ruler appears across the top of the list display to help identify the ordinal position of each character in the LDA. The numbers on the left of the display name the first character position of content appearing on each line.
Displayable character: Displayable character content of the LDA content is shown in normal green, next to each character number that appears on the left side.
Hexadecimal equivalents: Hexadecimal equivalents of each character in the LDA content appear in over/under mode at each character position. This representative view of the hexadecimal characters helps to identify content such as packed numeric data, or other binary data or control characters that cannot be represented on a 5250 (green screen) workstation display as single, displayable characters.

Start Job Track (STRJOBTRK)

The Start Job Track option tells the LSAM to monitor Tracked and Queued Jobs. Job tracking must also be started to use the Capture Job function. Starting job tracking causes the LSAM to register its exit program with IBM i. The exit program is run whenever anyone uses the SBMJOB (submit job) command from the IBM i system library QSYS.

danger

When using multiple LSAM environments, it is only possible to start job tracking from one environment at a time.

The reason for this restriction is that job tracking is a system-wide function that is managed by manipulating the exit points for the system command to submit jobs (SBMJOB). The exit program for LSAM job tracking can only be registered for one LSAM environment at a time. Job Tracking must be stopped in one environment before starting it from another environment. As with all tasksinvolving multiple environments, this requires careful coordination with the SAM-SS of OpCon.

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Start job track (#3)
From Command Entry, set the current library list for the LSAM environment (SMASETLIBL), or use the command entry line from within the LSAM menu system, then enter the command STRJOBTRK.

Start Job Tracking Messages

There is no display associated with the function to start job tracking. However, when the start operation has completed normally, the following message is displayed on the bottom of the LSAM menu screen:

Job tracking started - exit program entries added

If there is any failure to start job tracking, the following message appears instead:

Job tracking not started

When this error occurs, contact SMA Support for assistance. Additional information about what error has occurred may be available from your interactive job log. The job log can be viewed using the following procedure.

View Interactive Job Log

Enter the command WRKJOB in the command entry line.
Select option 10=Display job log.
Press <F10> (Display detailed messages).
Press <F18> (Bottom).
Press <PageUp> to scroll back to the messages that might report any errors that have occurred.

End Job Track (ENDJOBTRK)

The End Job Track option tells the LSAM to discontinue monitoring Tracked and Queued Jobs. Stopping job tracking also disables the Capture Job function. When job tracking is stopped, the LSAM removes its entries from the IBM i exit program registry.

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > End job track (#4)
From Command Entry, set the current library list for the LSAM environment (SMASETLIBL), or use the command entry line from within the LSAM menu system. Then enter the command ENDJOBTRK.

End Job Tracking Messages

Job tracking ended - exit program entries removed

If there is any failure to start job tracking, the following message appears instead:

Job tracking not ended

Check Job Track Status (JOBTRKSTS)

The pop-up Job Tack Status window displays the job track status. Options include STARTED and STOPPED.

Check Job Track Status Window

  Job track status :  STOPPED

                          Press Enter to continue

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Check Job Track Status (#5)
From Command Entry, set the current library list for the LSAM environment (SMASETLIBL), or use the command entry line from within the LSAM menu system, then enter the command JOBTRKSTS.

Job Tracking with Multiple LSAM Environments

Only one LSAM environment within an instance of the IBM i operating system is allowed to control Job Tracking. This constraint is imposed by the IBM i exit program technique used to enable LSAM Job Tracking.

The LSAM programs help to recognize whenever there is a conflict of job tracking control with another LSAM environment. When the job track status is checked, it is apparent that job tracking is being managed by a different environment if there is an error message at the bottom of the status window. The following figure illustrates this warning.

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Job tracking configuration (#7)

Fields

danger

The required procedure for changing the exit program number is to first stop job tracking, then change the number, then restart job tracking. The new number will not take effect until the next time that job tracking is started, and the old number (if not the default value) cannot be found for stopping job tracking if the number has been changed while job tracking is still active.

Field	Values	Default	Description
Environment			The name of the current LSAM environment in which the menu system is running (could be different from the specified Job Track control environment name).
Version			The version of LSAM software in this environment, from the LSAVERSION data area in library SMADTA (or its equivalent).
Control environment			The name of the LSAM environment that is currently, or was last specified as the environment in control of job tracking (could be different from the current Environment).
Job tracking status	STARTED/STOPPED		The status of LSAM job tracking, determined by checking for the exit program entries in the IBM i registry.
QSYS/SBMJOB cmd exit nbr.	1 -- 2147483647	2147483647	The exit point number assigned by the LSAM to the job tracking exit program in the IBM i registry.
Tracked Job parameter separator character - HEX	00-FF	6A	A pair of characters representing the hexadecimal value of the EBCDIC keyboard character that marks the division of this LSAM's Job Tracking ID information fields that are sent to OpCon. The same values and separator are returned to the LSAM when OpCon sends job control transactions after a $JOB event command initiates cooperative job tracking. The default value of a vertical bar, or "pipe" character is strongly recommended (e.g., \|).
			Note: Attention to this character is usually on required in non-U.S. environments. Please contact SMA Support for assistance if Job Tracking is not working correctly.
Auto-start job tracking	Y=Yes,N=No	Y	This option tells the LSAM server start and stop programs whether to also start or stop Job Tracking at the same time as all other LSAM server jobs are managed.
Allow *RQS msg for SBMJOB	0=No,1=Yes	0	This option controls the behavior of the Job Tracking command processor exit program when processing the SBMJOB command. The default behavior of the LSAM will be to directly call QCMD when submitting jobs that do not qualify for job tracking. When the option is set to '1' = Yes, the LSAM will provide improved support for the IBM i Command Entry screen function keys F9=Retrieve and F4=Prompt, while Job Tracking is started. However, this new option should be turned off (set to '0'=No) in environments where request message processing cannot be used to perform the SBMJOB command. This condition would typically only be discovered by experimentation.
Expand JOBD/JOBQ obj refs	0=No, 1=Yes	1	Many times the SBMJOB command parameters use cross-references to other IBM i objects in order to identify which job description and/or job queue should be used for a job. In most cases, these cross-references should be resolved by the Job Tracking programs as the tracking process starts, especially because the job start process is typically suspended from its original job, and then resumed from an LSAM server job
			This option tells the Job Tracking exit program whether to replace LIBL in the Job Description Library name and the Job Queue Library name of the intercepted SBMJOB command. It also controls replacing a value of JOBD in the Job Queue Name parameter of the SBMJOB command. Replacing these indirect object references may provide more exact control over which jobs are qualified for Job Tracking, and over selection of the OpCon Schedule and Schedule Date that is matched when there is more than one instance of the same IBM i Job Name that could be tracked, such as when a Test environment is present in the same IBM i partition as a Production environment.
			When this option is set to 0=No, the indirect object reference values of LIBL and JOBD could only be matched by the LSAM Job Tracking Parameter field special value of *ALL.
			The SBMJOB parameter values that are managed by the LSAM Job Tracking exit program are the values present in the original SBMJOB command, not the finally resolved job definition parameters that are replaced by IBM i only when the job is actually processed for placement on a job queue - which happens after the LSAM Job Tracking exit program.
Allow automatic tracking	0=None, 1=Positive, 2=Negative	0	This control field governs how Automatic Job Tracking will decide which jobs in the IBM i partition will be selected for automatic tracking. The impact of this control field is described above in this topic, under "How Job Tracking Works -> Automatic Job Tracking."
Allow generic filter names	0=No, 1=Yes	0	This option tells the Job Tracking mainetenance program whether to show options for using generic names in the IBM i Job ID filter section, and then also whether to show F10=$VAR so that the $-system variables $PREFIX or $SUFFIX can be used with the Schedule Name and/or the Frequency Name.
Generic prefix size	1 - 9, 0 = not applicable	0	When support for generic filter names is enabled, this field specifies the size of the first few letters that should be replaced in the IBM i Job Name (or other filter object name) so that question marks can be used instead when searching the Agent's Job Tracking Parameters master file for a match.
Generic suffix size	1 - 9, 0 = not applicable	0	When support for generic filter names is enabled, this field specifies the size of the few trailing letters that should be replaced in the IBM i Job Name (or other filter object name) so that question marks can be used instead when searching the Agent's Job Tracking Parameters master file for a match.

Option 5 = Display Captured Job Detail

DSPCAPR2 - Capture Job Detail

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Display captured jobs (DSPCAPJOB) (#10) > Option 5 = Display

Fields

Most of the job definition parameters are taken verbatim from the IBM i SBMJOB command. Detailed explanations of these fields may be found in IBM documentation and in the Help text for the SBMJOB command. The following table explains fields that are unique to the LSAM software and it provides additional notes about some fields.

tip

Captured jobs always convert a SBMJOB parameter value of *CURRENT to whatever value was in effect at the time the job was captured. This allows the values that would have been in effect for the job to be preserved until the job is actually executed by OpCon.

Internal Data

Capture ID: The key identifier of the record, specified when the job was captured. A Captured Job ID can use up to the 12 characters. Two additional characters more than a job name are allowed so that duplicate copies of the same job name can be stored with different job parameters.
Cap date: The system date when this job was captured.

IBM i Parameters

Cap time: The system time when this job was captured.
CMD SrcMbr: The name assigned by LSAM internal routines to the source member in the LSAM command source physical file DBFCMDSRC where the command line text is stored.
FMT: The system date format in effect when the job was captured. This is the format of the Job DATE field.
CapJob fields: The IBM i job ID of the workstation or batch job that performed the capture action.
INLLIBL +: The first several characters of the initial library list are shown. If there is more data in the list than can be shown on this display, the plus sign (+) appears at the end of the line and function key F14=More LIBL appears at the bottom of the display.
CMD line +: The first several characters of the command line are shown. If there is more data in the command line than can be shown on this display, the plus sign (+) appears at the end of the line and function key F13=More CMD appears at the bottom of the display.

Functions

F3=Exit: (Not displayed, but available.) Quits the display and returns to the menu.
F12=Cancel: Quits the display and returns to the previous screen.
F13=More CMD: Appears if there is more command line text than will fit on this display. Press <F13> to go to a dedicated screen where the entire command line text may be viewed, using PageDown as necessary.
F14=More LIBL: Appears if there are more entries in the initial library list than can be shown on this display. Press <F14> to go to a dedicated screen where the entire initial library list may be viewed.
F15=View LDA: All captured jobs have the 1024-character local data area captured and preserved, even if the LDA is not loaded or used for the job. For jobs that need the LDA, the captured LDA contents may be viewed using this function key. An examination of the LDA contents may be important if Dynamic Variables (type L) will be used to update the LDA contents when the captured job is executed by OpCon.

F13 = More CMD (View CMD)

F15 = View LDA

Pressing <F15> from the Display Captured Job Detail display provides access to a display of the captured job's local data area (LDA) content. This screen is a list of the 15 lines (1024 characters) of the LDA content, but the screen may show completely blank content. Function key \<F10> may be used to toggle the display between a character-only mode that shows the whole LDA on one screen (but non-display characters in the LDA will appear as blanks), and a hex mode that shows the hexadecimal equivalents for each LDA byte position in over/under mode.

DSPCAPR6 - Capture Job Detail - LDA Content (2 Views)

Fields

Ruler/Character number: A ruler appears across the top of the list display to help identify the ordinal position of each character in the LDA. The numbers on the left of the display name the first character position of content appearing on each line.
Displayable character: Displayable character content of the LDA content is shown in normal green, next to each character number that appears on the left side.
Hexadecimal equivalents: The hexadecimal equivalents of each character in the LDA content appear in over/under mode at each character position. This representative view of the hexadecimal characters helps to identify content such as packed numeric data, or other binary data or control characters that cannot be represented on a 5250 (green screen) workstation display as single, displayable characters.

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the display and returns to the menu.
F12=Cancel: Quits the display and returns to the previous screen.
F10=Hex/Char: Toggles the display between the two modes, character and hexadecimal.

PageDown: (not shown) May be used if "More..." appears at the bottom of the display while in Hex display mode.

Work with Captured Jobs (WRKCAPJOB)

The "Work with" function allows data of captured job information to be accessed for update. This function, driven by the WRKCAPJOB command, should probably be restricted to a limited number of user profiles. It may not be appropriate for as wide group of user profiles as the display-only DSPCAPJOB command/function that does not allow changes.

WRKCAPR1 - Work with Captured Jobs

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Work with captured jobs (WRKCAPJOB) (#11)

Options

2=Change: Update the job parameters; also provides access to special update functions for the initial library list, the command line and the LDA content.
3=Copy: Select a record as the source data for creating a new captured job definition without having to run the Capture Job process again.
4=Delete: Select one or more records to be deleted, along with all of their associated job definition data (stored in multiple LSAM master files). A subsequent prompt screen will present a list of all records selected for deletion before the delete action is confirmed and completed.
5=Detail: View the details of a captured job (without being concerned about updating them).

Fields

Opt: Input field where an available option may be typed to act upon a record in the list.
Search content: Type in a value that can be found anywhere in the record represented by each line on the list. The entire record will be searched, not just the fields displayed in the list. Use option 5=Display to see the matching detail that satisfied the search when the cursor appears in the Opt field next to a line on the display. The <Enter> key or <F16> may be used to start a search, and <F16> is used to continue the search from the last record found.
Capture ID: The key identifier of each record. For records of type L, this name must be the Captured Job ID or the Job Name of a tracked or queued job. For records of type V, this may be any meaningful name that will be used to create a token ID. Job names are limited to 10 characters, but a Captured Job ID or token ID can use up to the 12 characters allowed for this field.
Job name: The name the job will use (by default) when it is submitted, same as the job name that was specified when the job was originally captured. (This value may be overridden by various means, including by the job name specified in the OpCon schedule that executes the captured job.)
CMD line...: The first several characters of the job's command line are displayed to help identify each job. (The full command line content is available in the detailed displays for each record.)

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the display and returns to the menu.

F15=Change LDA: All captured jobs have the 1024-character local data area captured and preserved, even if the LDA is not loaded or used for the job. For jobs that need the LDA, the captured LDA contents may be viewed and updated using this function key.
F21=CHKJOB: Press <F21> to request an edit from IBM i of the job's parameters. Any error messages returned by IBM i will display at the bottom of the screen. Data entry made on this screen is NOT edited when <Enter> is pressed to update the record. <F21> must be used before the <Enter> key is pressed in order to help assure that a captured job definition will be updated with valid data.

F13 = Change CMD

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Work with captured jobs (WRKCAPJOB) (#11) > Option 2 = Change > F13=Change CMD
Pressing <F13> starts a Source Edit Utility (SEU) session that can be used to update the source file member where the full command line is stored.

tip

The SEU edit screen is not documented in this documentation. Refer to IBM documentation for information about how to perform source member editing with SEU. The LSAM permits any other form of IBM i source physical file member editing to be used, including WebSphere from a PC workstation. The field value for CMD SrcMbr names the member in file SMADTA/DBFCMDSRC that can be edited in order to update the captured job's command line. (The SMADTA library may have a different name if an alternate LSAM environment is being used.)

F14 = Edit LIBL

In the Edit LIBL display, after new values have been typed and the <Enter> key has been pressed once, the sorted and updated library list is presented a second time for confirmation before an update is completed. The <Enter> key must be pressed a second time with no changes made to the screen in order for the data update to be completed. (This works like the IBM i EDTLIBL command in this respect.)

WRKCAPR5 - Capture Job Detail - Edit LIBL

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Work with captured jobs (WRKCAPJOB) (#11) > Option 2 = Change > F14=Edit LIBL

Fields

Capture ID: The key identifier of the record, specified when the job was captured. A Captured Job ID can use up to the 12 characters. Two additional characters more than a job name are allowed so duplicate copies of the same job name can be stored with different job parameters.
Sequence number: 10 -- 2500, similar to the IBM i EDTLIBL display. Different values can be typed into this field to cause the order of libraries in the list to change. The sequence number field is renumbered by tens every time the <Enter> key is pressed, after the library names have been sorted into the requested order.
Library: The name of any library that should be in the job's initial library list. For the Capture Job application (unlike the IBM i EDTLIBL command), a single value of *JOBD, or any other value permitted by the INLLIBL parameter of the SBMJOB command, may be used instead of actual library names.

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the display and returns to the menu.
F12=Cancel: Quits the display and returns to the previous screen.
PageUp: View library names towards the beginning of the library list.
PageDown: View library names towards the end of the library list.

F15 = Change LDA

Pressing <F15> from the Change Captured Job Detail display provides access to a display of the captured job's local data area (LDA) content. This screen is a list of the 15 lines (1024 characters) of the LDA content. Function key \<F10> may be used to toggle the display between a character-only mode that shows the whole LDA on one screen (but non-display characters in the LDA will appear as blanks), and a hex mode that shows the hexadecimal equivalents for each LDA byte position in over/under mode.

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Work with captured jobs (WRKCAPJOB) (#11) > Option 2 = Change > F15=Change LDA

Fields

Ruler/Character number: A ruler appears across the top of the list display to help identify the ordinal position of each character in the LDA. The numbers on the left of the display name the first character position of content appearing on each line.
Displayable character: Displayable character content of the LDA content is shown in normal green, next to each character number that appears on the left side.
Hexadecimal equivalents: Hexadecimal equivalents of each character in the LDA content appear in over/under mode at each character position. This representative view of the hexadecimal characters helps to identify content such as packed numeric data, or other binary data or control characters that cannot be represented on a 5250 (green screen) workstation display as single, displayable characters.

Functions

F3=Exit: Quits the display and returns to the menu.
F12=Cancel: Quits the display and returns to the previous screen.
F10=Hex/Char Updt: Toggles the display between the two modes, character and hexadecimal. F10 changes the mode in which data entry is allowed. When F10 is pressed, any updates entered in the first mode are preserved before the entry mode is switched. Use F11 to temporarily change the view between hex and character without leaving the current data entry mode.
F11=Hex/Char View: Toggles the display between hex and character viewing modes, but does not change the data entry mode or cause any typed changes to be preserved.
F19=Rollback: This function key will cause a window to display that lists all the prior versions of this LDA content. A prior version may be selected for viewing and/or accepted as an update to the LDA in order to put it back to a prior, or the original version. (Refer to example, below.)
PageUp: (not shown) May be used if PageDown was previously used to show more lines while in Hex display mode.
PageDown: (not shown) May be used if "More..." appears at the bottom of the display while in Hex display mode.

F19 = Rollback

Pressing <F19> from the Change LDA display presents a window that lists all the prior versions of this LDA that were previously saved to disk. A prior version may be selected to view it in the Change LDA display, and if it is acceptable, pressing <Enter> will cause the LDA content to be updated to that content version. (This new update will also be preserved in the update history of the LDA.)

Option 3 = Copy Captured Job

WRKCAPR8 - Copy Job Detail

Main Menu > Job track menu (#1) > Work with captured jobs (WRKCAPJOB) (#11) > Option 3 = Copy

Fields

Internal Data

Capture ID (from): The key identifier of the record, specified when the job was captured. A Captured Job ID can use up to the 12 characters. Two additional characters more than a job name are allowed so that duplicate copies of the same job name can be stored with different job parameters.
To: Capture ID: A new capture ID must be provided. The program suggests a new ID based on the source ID. When the trailing characters of the source ID are blank, the program inserts zeros to fill the field and increments a counter in the last character position(s) that will make the new ID unique. The proposed ID may be changed, but the new record being created by the Copy function must have a unique ID.
Cap date: The system date when this job was captured.
Cap time: The system time when this job was captured.

IBM i Parameters

CMD SrcMbr: The name assigned by LSAM internal routines to the source member in the LSAM command source physical file DBFCMDSRC where the command line text is stored. A new member will be created for the copied command line.
FMT: The system date format in effect when the job was captured. This is the format of the Job DATE field.
CapJob fields: The IBM i job ID of the workstation or batch job that performed the capture action.
INLLIBL +: The first several characters of the initial library list are shown. If there is more data in the list than can be shown on this display, the plus sign (+) appears at the end of the line. |
tip
The Initial library list cannot be maintained from this display-only field. Use F14=Edit LIBL to perform any changes.
CMD line +: The first several characters of the command line are shown. If there is more data in the command line than can be shown on this display, the plus sign (+) appears at the end of the line.
tip
