Thanks for your reply Charles--
I need to be able to give operations a method of ending and starting a
particular program
If the program was already running - then I don't want multiple
occurrences in the mix - so therefore - don't submit a new job
If the program is NOT running - then I don't call ENDJOB etc.
Like I said - we don't have the source to the program(s) - so I cannot put
any changes within it
I also thought of a CL wrapper - for submitting the call of the program,
but I was hoping there was something to definitively tell me that a program
was running

Subject: Re: How to determine if a program is being run
There's no lock on a *PGM object when you run it...
AFAIK, there's no easy way to know if a program is currently being used.
QAUDJRN could track when it was started....
I suppose you could dump the call stack of every active job and look for
the program.
But for ILE, the program could still be active in a named group withing
appearing in a job's call stack.
What are you trying to accomplish?

Hi everyone--
Before I forget, we are on V7r1
Does anyone know of a way/method/process/api etc, to determine if a
program is being run
I thought of using this SQL statement (below) into a file and then
interrogate that file I got this from this web site
http://ibm.biz/DB2foriServices under Work Management Services, but I
need to know the job name involved, and who to say the program is
running under a particular job name - or if that job name is in fact
running that program
SELECT JOB_NAME, SUBSTR(JOB_NAME,1,6) AS JOB_NUMBER,
SUBSTR(JOB_NAME,8,POSSTR(SUBSTR(JOB_NAME,8), '/')-1) AS JOB_USER,
SUBSTR(SUBSTR(JOB_NAME,8),POSSTR(SUBSTR(JOB_NAME,8),'/')+1) AS
JOB_NAME2 FROM TABLE (QSYS2.ACTIVE_JOB_INFO('NO','','','')) AS X
I then thought - well if the program is running, there has to be a
lock on that program So I thought of using WRKOBJLCK, an api, the
following SQL, also from the same web page, but who is to say the lock
is due to the program running
SELECT * FROM QSYS2.OBJECT_LOCK_INFO
I need this information so that I can see if the program needs to be
ended I don't have access to the source - so I cannot change it to set
a data area
Any and all help would be MUCH appreciated
