Re: QZSHSH joblogs

I sent a post on this recently. Essentially, you can set an environment 
variable, in order to get the job names. (I also have job QP0ZSPWP.)

ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_CHILD_JOB_SNDINQMSG) VALUE(2)

sends inquiry messages (CPAA980) with the qualified job name - you can get 
the job name, then respond with 'G' to keep going. This required 2 RCVMSG 
commands. The VALUE(2) is the number of messages sent, and I see 2 jobs.

You can try it interactively - execute this command first:

CHGMSGQ MSGQ(*usrprf) DLVRY(*BREAK)

More info on these environment variables is in the QShell docs under 
Programming->Shells in InfoCenter.
