Re: WRKWCH for MCH3401 - system jobs QMSF and QTSMTPCLTP triggering the watch thousands of times.

Hmm... While JOBWATCH doesn't monitor for specific message IDs, it would be
super simple to add that to a processing program when monitoring a message
queue.

Near the bottom are all the replacement variables available to work with.

Last year, i tried to use STRWCH to monitor all messages to a specific
message queue. That didn't work because the OS was spawning a job everytime
the message ID matched, and only then checking the message queue. Since
every message matches *ALL, that was every message sent in the system. IBM
support said "operating as designed". I submitted an RFE, which is still
pending.

I discovered this month, that using a wild card in the message ID seems
to do the same thing. I sent this to IBM support, but they haven't returned
a ruling yet.

push back on "working as designed", I hate that cop-out reply.

If you really think it's broken keep at it. Present your case.
