 |

Hi all,
I would like to write an utility which will notify me when a specific Prod Job runs.
Can any one let me know how to go about it ?
Thanks,
Tattva |

tattva,
Why re-invent the wheel ? Add an email step to the job(last step) using SMTP. search the forum for "SMTP" and you will find many examples.
Hope this helps

Not sure whether he can change the already existing production job to add an SMTP step and whether he has the authorization to do so. Atleast I don't have the authorization. Is there any other way in that case.
Thanks,

Every major job scheduling system that I'm aware of has the built-in capability of generating an email upon completion of a job, a schedule, or other criteria.
In our shop, we use the BMC Mainview AutoOPERATOR console management product to trigger an event whenever a production job ends (or abends or is late in the schedule). The jobname is passed thorough a table and, if a match is found, the table supplies a value for notification email addresses. The types of notifications are determined by the Severity Level set for the job:
M (Milestones): the message of a successful completion is sent immediately.
1 (Severity Level 1): the message of an abend or late in schedule is sent immediately.
2 (Severity Level 2): the message of an abend or late in schedule is postponed for 30 minutes. If the job is re-started within the 30 minutes, then the notification is not sent.
3 (Severity Level 3): Same as 2, but the delay is for 2 hours. |

tattva, could you please brief out the reason behind your requirement ? BMC or CA7 whatever it be. If you need this notification for personal purpose, I don't think you can do that.
Thanks,

Hi all,
Phatom,
Sorry for the delay in responding.
Here's why :-
sometimes we need to submit some jobs(Not prod though) immediately after one of the PROD job starts and its a pain staking task to keep on monitoring that Job(PROD).
It would be great if any one can provide me with a solution to this.
Kolusu,
we Don't have the access to add steps to the existing PROD jobs.
Thanks,
tattva |

tattva,
If your job is a test region job (not your personal one), then you can probably set the job as a Dataset Trigger in whatever scheduler you have (CA7...). The scheduler will monitor for a particular dataset, probably the last dataset created by the production stream and once it gets catalogued, it kicks off your test job.
If your production and test environments run on two different systems, then you can probably schedule a Dummy job which NDMs a empty/dummy file from prod to test. You Dataset Trigger job will run once the dummy file reaches testplex. You need to schedule your dummy NDM transmission job after your production job. But you can do all these only if your job is NOT any personal job.
Thanks,
Phantom |

I thought I did. From what I can tell, using an automation tool to fire off from the 'IEF403I' console message from the start of the job would be the best and easiest-to-implement solution. |

tattva,
You need to let us know what you have tried and how it does not work. We can't just read your mind.
Also did you look into my post which is just 2 post above this post?
