When you say the subsystem must be ending when the AG ends, you are overlooking the idea that the job may be ended by ENDJOB while the subsystem remains healthy. To end the SBS just because this job is ending, well, let's just say I would not advise that.

Jobs running in other subsystems would not suffer from the problem that Charles suggested. In those jobs, the notification steps would not run when the monitored subsystem ends (of course). But Charles suggested (rightly) that if the job running RAGE is ended, you WILL be notified, falsely, of SBS end.

But again, I like the concept. I get it.

test the sbs status, if the monitorjob ends (its running within the
susbsystem it has to monitor!!!), the sbs has to be ended. To be shure
I
would do an endsbs as the last action in the monitor. BTW: for monitor
jobs
running outside of the sbs, you would have the same problem as chuck
mentioned, if someone ends the monitor job.

Further to that, ENDSBS . . . OPTION(*IMMED) may not give RAGE a
chance to
do its work. In most instances, monitors do best in observance -
rather
than reactive - mode. But I do like the concept. Maybe follow up
with a
check of SBS status.

So a NEP is running in a user job in the subsystem, such that if

not

really ended but the NEP falsely concludes and reports the subsystem
has
ended.?

While I would generally accept that implementation for my own use
as
well [i.e. I find it perfectly acceptable, but I would also enable
the
job as self-submitted to a single-threaded job queue, behind itself],
I

do not see how that implementation is any less of a "work around"
than
some other suggestions that have been made, because the termination
processing would not be running in the subsystem monitor job itself;
i.e. the RAGE would need to occur as the effect of the subsystem
ending,
not as the effect of the user NEP job ending, in order to conclude
that

the subsystem is ending.

Subsystem end, the activation group CONTROL will end an the exit
handler is called. You will find this technic in many of my open
Source stuff at my german website bender-dv.de, google translate
will assist you to find it there.


A good approach for a user job, but how does a user get such a
program to run in the OS subsystem monitor job? The intercept of
the end of the AG in a user job that runs "in" the subsystem will
detect when that job\activation group ends, not when the subsystem
[monitor job] has ended.
