Re: Identify all occurances of specific Jobd(s) on the system

Paul

You could do a search - maybe google, maybe in Infocenter - for jobd( - this would be the beginning of its use as a parameter.

You might also consider looking at the panel groups that contain help text - they all start with QH, I believe - I see some in QSYS and many in QHLPSYS - there is an API to retrieve help text - here is a brief sample of its usage -

PGM

DCL &USPTR *PTR ADDRESS(*NULL)
DCL &RCVVAR *CHAR 5000
DCL &RCVVARLEN *INT 4 5000
DCL &FMTNAM *CHAR 8 'RHLP0100'
DCL &HLPIDS *CHAR 80
DCL &HLPID *CHAR 32 STG(*DEFINED) DEFVAR(&HLPIDS 1)
DCL &HLPOBJ *CHAR 10 STG(*DEFINED) DEFVAR(&HLPIDS 33)
DCL &HLPLIB *CHAR 10 STG(*DEFINED) DEFVAR(&HLPIDS 43)
DCL &HLPTYP *CHAR 10 STG(*DEFINED) DEFVAR(&HLPIDS 53)
DCL &HLPIDCNT *INT 4 1
DCL &HLPTXT *CHAR 5000 STG(*BASED) BASPTR(&USPTR)
DCL &HLPTXTLEN *INT 4 5000
DCL &EC *CHAR 8 X'0000000000000000'
DCL &USNAME *CHAR 20 'HELPTEXT QTEMP '
DCL &USSIZE *INT 4 5000
DCL &USINIT *CHAR 1 X'00'
CHGVAR &HLPID 'CPYF/MBROPT'
CHGVAR &HLPOBJ 'QHCPCMD1'
CHGVAR &HLPLIB '*LIBL'
CHGVAR &HLPTYP '*PNLGRP'
CALL QUSCRTUS (&USNAME 'HELPTEXT' &USSIZE &USINIT '*ALL' ' ' '*YES' +
&EC '*USER')
CALL QUSPTRUS (&USNAME &USPTR &ECD)
CALL QUHRHLPT (&RCVVAR &RCVVARLEN &FMTNAM &HLPIDS &HLPIDCNT &HLPTXT +
&HLPTXTLEN &EC)
MONMSG CPF6E3B

ENDPGM

I don't remember if the entire command help is retrieved using just the command name in &HLPID.

Another option might be to use the GENCMDDOC against every command on the system and search the resulting IFS files for JOBD.

Bryan,

That's a thought.

I found more locations for jobd usage.
Subsystem descriptions.
3. Autostart job entries
4. Work station name entries
10. Prestart job entries

At this point I'm creating a list of any object that contains reference to a jobd.
Does anyone know if this list may already exist in manual or document.

Not tested, just thinking aloud...
and assuming you are not using job accounting.

What if you assigned a special unique job accounting code to each of the jobds, you could then look thru the accounting journal for those specific codes.

Rob,

Jobd usage does not show up in QAUDJRN, confirmed by IBM.
Only jobd changes.

Plan B?

Thanks
Paul
