Can we get the return code of a job in some variable, some how!! Using Cobol or REXX?? Actually I am in process of automating Compilation process for mass jobs, and want to store their respective return codes in some file!!
Any suggestion will be welcome. |

| Do you need the Return Code of single step or about the end of Job? |

For whole of the job,, the final RC,that is shown to the NOTIFY=whtever terminal. I want to capture it and store it in some variable for all the jobs and then print a report of them in the end.
POSSIBLE?? |

I use this exec to log the return-codes for each step of the job. It runs as the very last step:
| Code: |
/* REXX GETRC */
/* GET THE STEP NAME AND RETURN CODE */
NUMERIC DIGITS(32) /* ENSURE MAX PRECISION */
TCB=STORAGE(D2X(540),4) /* PSATOLD IN PSA */
JSCB =STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TCB)+180),4) /* TCBJSCB IN TCB */
JCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(JSCB)+261),3) /* JSCBJCTA IN JSCB */
THIS_STEP_NO = X2D(C2X(STORAGE(D2X(C2D(JSCB)+228),1)))
/* THIS STEP NO. */
FSCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(JCT)+48),3) /* JCTSDKAD IN JCT */
/* IS FIRST SCT */
TEMP_SCT = FSCT
DO I = 1 TO (THIS_STEP_NO - 1)
STEP = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+68),8)
RCSTEP = X2D(C2X(STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+24),2)))
/* SCTSEXEC IN SCT */
BYPASS = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+188),1)
IF X2D(C2X(BYPASS)) = 80 THEN /* CHECK IF STEP WAS NOT EXECUTED */
DO
RCSTEP = 'FLUSHED '
END
SAY 'STEP ==>' STEP ' RC ==>' RCSTEP
TEMP_SCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+36),3)
END
EXIT

Hi SuperK,
After adding laststep in jcl, I am getting the following error. Can you please check and let me know the problem.
JOB09894 +IRX0408E Exec member name must not be specified when exec load DD refers to a sequential data set.
JOB09894 +IRX0110I The REXX exec cannot be interpreted.
JOB09894 +IRX0112I The REXX exec cannot be loaded.
JOB09894 -RCKCHKSP LASTSTEP 20 8 .00 .00 .0 99
Thanks,
Prem |

This error happen when you define a sequential dataset in SYSEXEC. You must put the Super(k) code in a member of partitioned with lrecl=80 and in jcl specify only the name of partitioned. The name of the member is indicated in PARM='membername'.
I hope in this help |

| The above exec give RC for each step.Anyway to directly get the MAXCC of the job thru the same exec . I apologize if this question sounds silly as i am very new to REXX. |

Hello,
The "above program" is pretty well commented.
One thing that would make it more difficult for someone who is learning is that the code references some of the system control blocks (an entirely different set of knowledge).
I'd suggest you run the code with TRACE and watch what happens. |

Has anyone tried with the code provided by feellikeneo ?
I got a Max-RC 3657 while executing with that.
This is what I got in SYSTSPRT LASTSTEP :
| Code: |
******************** TOP OF DATA ***********************
STEP ==> SEARCH RC ==> 1
24 +++ Idx = Idx + 1
IRX0041I Error running GETRC, line 24: Bad arithmetic conversion
******************* BOTTOM OF DATA ********************
|
The JCL I am running is:
| Code: |
//SRCHFORE JOB (SRCH,FO),'SERC',REGION=8M,CLASS=C,
// MSGCLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//SEARCH EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,
// PARM=(SRCHCMP,
// 'ANYC')
//NEWDD DD DSN=KB8796.BASI.SRC,
// DISP=SHR
//OUTDD DD DSN=KB8796.SRCH.REXX1,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG),UNIT=SYSDA,
// SPACE=(0,(50,100),RLSE),
// DCB=(BLKSIZE=0)
//SYSIN DD *
SRCHFOR 'B2CCT'
/*
//LASTSTEP EXEC PGM=IRXJCL,PARM='GETRC'
//SYSEXEC DD DISP=SHR,DSN=KB8796.REXX.SOURCE
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD DUMMY
|
The code what superk has mentioned is working fine.
But I was looking forward to finding out the MAXCC (RC for the Job) and not RC for each step in the JCL.
Thanks |

| How can the last step in a job return the max cc for the job since the job hasn't finished yet? |

After the job is finished is it possible for us to capture the MAXCC through REXX? If it is possible, then how can we do that? any code snippet or any guidance is most welcome.
Thanks |

Because it is the last step in the job it can get the previous RC's
The posted code will give you exactly what you need, but you will need to work on it to fix the errors |

SuperK's example examines all return codes. You should be able to modify to examine all and also save the highest return code.
That is, you should be able to... feellikeneo tried, but was not able to modify successfully. Idx is not initialized. Looks like feellikeneo got confused between usage of ArrIdx and Idx. Also confused between ArrIdxMax and IdxMax |

What about:
| Code: |
/* REXX GETMAXRC */
/* GET THE STEP NAME AND RETURN CODE */
NUMERIC DIGITS(32) /* ENSURE MAX PRECISION */
TCB=STORAGE(D2X(540),4) /* PSATOLD IN PSA */
JSCB =STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TCB)+180),4) /* TCBJSCB IN TCB */
JCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(JSCB)+261),3) /* JSCBJCTA IN JSCB */
THIS_STEP_NO = X2D(C2X(STORAGE(D2X(C2D(JSCB)+228),1)))
/* THIS STEP NO. */
FSCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(JCT)+48),3) /* JCTSDKAD IN JCT */
/* IS FIRST SCT */
TEMP_SCT = FSCT
MAXRC = 0
DO I = 1 TO (THIS_STEP_NO - 1)
STEP = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+68),8)
RCSTEP = X2D(C2X(STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+24),2)))
/* SCTSEXEC IN SCT */
BYPASS = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+188),1)
IF X2D(C2X(BYPASS)) = 80 THEN /* CHECK IF STEP WAS NOT EXECUTED */
DO
RCSTEP = 'FLUSHED '
END
SAY 'STEP ==>' STEP ' RC ==>' RCSTEP
IF RCSTEP > MAXRC THEN MAXRC = RCSTEP
TEMP_SCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(TEMP_SCT)+36),3)
END
SAY 'MAXRC ==>' MAXRC
EXIT
RETURN

nice try Mike 
The topic has been resurrected after

I wonder, Mike had been here since 2006 and original discussion started mid 2005 and the latest post is in 2012 - something does not match up here...
