Re: QSH db2 command and qsys2.joblog_info() - exit status 1 -- MIDRANGE-L

So apparently there are three jobs involved in running a QSH (db2?)
command...

Your standard 5250 job...
QZSHSH job (used for the entire QSH session)
QP0ZSPWP job (spawned for each command?)

The first two have joblogs with at least the "Job nnnnnn/xxxx/xxx started
on ..." message. That third one does not.

this works on a system without an iASP

QSH CMD('db2 "CALL QSYS2.QCMDEXC(''ADDLIBLE NONEXIST'') ;
select * from table (qsys2.joblog_info(''*''))" > /tmp/loglog.txt')

I get some data back.

Correct, as noted in my prior post :)

Still interesting that no records are returned, except on a system with

an

iASP...

Perhaps I read Bryan's response wrong.
When I ran his command I got
520158/ROB/QP0ZSPWP
Which basically does say that if you're looking for a way to get the
joblog from your job then using QSH to fire off the SQL is not the way

to

do it.
You might want to try RUNSQLSTM or some of the homegrown EXESQL or
RUNSQL SQL('CREATE TABLE QTEMP.LOGLOG AS (Select * from
table(qsys2.joblog_info(''*''))) with data') COMMIT(*NC)

could it be that there were no joblog? i think that the the QSH command
when run from a command prompt will spawn a new job. that job does not
have a joblog.

Try this:
QSH CMD('db2 "values job_name" >> loglog.txt')

you should see a new job.

Nobody has any thoughts?

So more info...

From an interactive QSH, (on the problem box)

db2 "select * from table (qsys2.joblog_info('*'))"

returns
0 RECORD(S) SELECTED.

Works fine on another box...

QSH CMD('db2 "select * from table (qsys2.joblog_info(''*''))" >
loglog.txt')

running
select * from table (qsys2.joblog_info('*'))

in STRSQL returns data in the same 5250 session...

This works fine
qsh cmd('db2 "select * from sysibm.sysdummy1" > test.txt')

And the problem command works fine when run on a different system...

Thanks!
