Monitoring Jobs

The Job Monitor is available as soon as a job has been started. Its three pages provide detailed information on the job parameters

The Job Monitor comprises three pages. The agent-specific and Attributes pages are always in read-only mode.

The JCL page, on the other hand, can be edited provided:

Your user definition has been granted with the necessary rights
The job has a status between 1566 and 1799, see System Return Codes of Executable Objects.

When you open the JOBS Monitor, this page is always in read-only. Click the button to make it editable.
