RE: WRKSYSSTS Problem.... I think

The number of entries on an output queue doesn't tell you anything.  There 
could be one report on an output queue per job, or theere could be 
thousands of reports on a queue from one job.

Steven,

Try doing DSPJOBTBL.  Look at the In-use column.  Now press F11.  This
should tell you what you need to know.

Subject: WRKSYSSTS Problem.... I think


I have several machines on 4.5 and 5.1. I noticed when I do a WRKSYSSTS 
and
look at the Jobs In System, it shows a number that I have always known as
benig the total number of jobs in the system, ie... spool files, jobs
running... ect. But now I am confused, I just displayed it and it shows:

Jobs in system . . . . . :       3253

When I looks at my WRKACTJOB it shows:

Active jobs:   598

I assume that out fo the 3253 jobs on my system, 598 of them are regular
jobs on the WRKACTJOBS screen, counting some task and hidden jobs not
showing up. So that should at least leave me with 2655 "other" jobs on the
system.When I do a WRKOUTQ I see:

NSMDOWN        CSTLX            6377
QPRINT         QGPL             3679 

this is not counting alot of other queues that have several hundred jobs 
in
them. I just listed the ones that were in the thousands.

Why doesnt the Jobs In The System total up to any of this now?
