Frank: If you want to change someone else's active job and there's been no prior preparation, it'll take some fancy programming -- you might want to try this request over on the MI400 list instead. But if you're willing to create a structure to allow this in the future... One old example -- Use a break-handling program on a message queue to execute commands that you send to the Queue. You can assign the message queue to the job in an initial program, but I'd prefer doing it in a routing program in the interactive subsystem. The routing program would create a message queue with a unique name, perhaps just 'MQ' plus the six-char job number from RTVJOBA. (Set the authority so not just anyone can send messages to it.) Then CHGMSGQ to assign the break-handler and end with TFRCTL QCMD. Though you'll want to firm that up -- error processing, etc. -- that may be about all there is for the routing program itself. Then while the job is active, you can do a SNDMSG 'ADDLIBLE mylib' TOMSGQ(MQ123456), and the break-handler can receive message and execute the command via QCMDEXC or QCAPCMD or however you want it done. There are dozens of ways to cleanup orphaned message queues in case you worry about ending up with thousands of old queues hanging around after a while. One possible way to minimize that would be to have the routing program send a scope message that ran at end-job time to run a program to release the break-handler and delete the associated queue. Or use the QIBM_QWT_JOBNOTIFY exit point or...??? You can probably get it working with a couple dozen lines of CL plus whatever you need as a regular full cleanup. Shouldn't take a terrible lot beyond that to make it really nice. Tom Liotta midrange-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > 11.
