Hi,

some time back I saw a vendor utility which connects to the mainframe server from windows and submits some jobs and also provides a list of jobs that are in my spool.

I searched the forums and found how to submit a job thru' FTP (quote site filetype=Jes).

Could someone let me know how to get a list of all jobs that are in my spool (SDSF) ?

Thanks for the support.

Phantom,

I guess you are looking at downloading all the jobs that are there in your spool to your PC. This can be done through FTP itself. Try this out and let me know if it worked.

1. Connect to your mainframe through ftp
2. Once authorized say quote site filetype=jes
3. switch off prompting by saying prom
4. mget * now will get all jobs for which you are the owner.

Cheers
Brian

Brian,

Can I get the jobs in another users Spool ? (logging on using my ID). I mean after logging on using my ID can I change the owner id (without knowing his password) and get his spool contents ?

Thanks,
Phantom

Phantom,

Yes. You can get the other user's spool content by using the following command.

Jeba,

Sorry for not responding sooner.

Thanks for your solution. Unfortunately for me it did not work. It seems that System admins have removed this option in our shop. I get the following error message when I issued the quote site command.
