Re: Finding process ID from Job ID?

I'm using the Job, JobList classes from the Java Tool to query the
system about jobs by job name (9999999/USERNAME/JOBNAME) format. How
do you find the process ID from this? I'm scanning through the
documentation but nothing is really leaping out yet. If I go into a
QSH session and do a "ps -A" it prints a process ID along with job ID
and other job info. How can I get the process ID? I see the
"internal job ID" but that isn't the same thing as it is a 16 byte
field.

I'm curious ... what do you need the process id for a job for?

In IBM i context, the jobname is the key to accessing and manipulating running processes.

A bit more information will help us understand your objective.
