Re: Call program(s) on subsystem start

Further to that, ENDSBS . . . OPTION(*IMMED) may not give RAGE a chance to do its work. In most instances, monitors do best in observance - rather than reactive - mode. But I do like the concept. Maybe follow up with a check of SBS status.

So a NEP is running in a user job in the subsystem, such that if
someone issues an ENDJOB and the RAGE transpires, the subsystem has not

really ended but the NEP falsely concludes and reports the subsystem
has
ended.?

While I would generally accept that implementation for my own use as
well [i.e. I find it perfectly acceptable, but I would also enable the
job as self-submitted to a single-threaded job queue, behind itself], I

do not see how that implementation is any less of a "work around" than
some other suggestions that have been made, because the termination
processing would not be running in the subsystem monitor job itself;
i.e. the RAGE would need to occur as the effect of the subsystem
ending,
not as the effect of the user NEP job ending, in order to conclude that

the subsystem is ending.

Subsystem end, the activation group CONTROL will end an the exit
handler is called. You will find this technic in many of my open
Source stuff at my german website bender-dv.de, google translate
will assist you to find it there.

A good approach for a user job, but how does a user get such a
program to run in the OS subsystem monitor job? The intercept of
the end of the AG in a user job that runs "in" the subsystem will
detect when that job\activation group ends, not when the subsystem
[monitor job] has ended.
