Why not embed sending of the message into your backup program? In fact, you
can have several types of messages:

1. Backup has started,
2. Hey! You forgot to put a tape in the drive, so I'm restarting the system.
3. Backup has completed

That sort of thing.

Subject: CL for Backup Alerts

Hi,
 
I have to set up alert at a specific time on AS400 which will check if the
backup job is running.
 
If the backup is not running at that specific time,it should send an
alert'Backup Not Running' else it should send an alert'Backup is
running'/'Backup is in Message Wait'.
 
Unfortunately there is no Robot or IBM Advanced Scheduler installed here
hence I have to rely on the CL.
 
I have an idea where we need to run WRKJOB <Backup Job Name> and then trap
the status of the job ie.whether ACTIVE/MSGW or NOT FOUND .But unfortunately
I have been unable to code this logic.
 
Please can anyone help me with this.
 
Many Thanks
