Unsolicited output is defined as data sets received from a
host or another remote that are not recognized by SNA NRJE as coming
from jobs that were submitted on your workstation. Causes of Unsolicited Output | |
Output can be considered unsolicited because of any of these circumstances: The output was generated by a user
on the host or another remote, not by a job submitted on the workstation. NRJE was not able to interpret the print or punch
banners because they were not standard, the standard format changed,
or the host did not send banners with the output. NRJE was not able to read the host "Job
Received" message because the message was not standard,
the standard format changed, or the host does not send "Job
Received" messages upon receipt of jobs. (VSE/POWER does
not send "Job Received" messages.) You have suppressed printing or punching of banners.
This took place in your JCL, or by means of a host console command,
or the host may not be configured to send banners. There was a significant lag between the time the
host received a job and the time the host returned output to NRJE.
During this lag the contents of the Job Log, including output routing
information for your job, were purged by the NRJE manager with the
NRJE PURGE command.
Controlling Unsolicited Output | |
If banners are off, turn them on (for example, JES2 $T PR1,S=Y). If the host is waiting to transmit output to
NRJE and you know that the output will be treated as unsolicited,
you still can direct it to a specific destination by any of these
methods: Output management Make sure the Lookup Table file name is configured
for your workstation and that formids that correspond to entries in the Lookup Table are
specified in your JCL. SPOOK or MPE spooler Raise the Outfence value for the MPE spooler so that
it is above the priority value of your output data sets (defer the
output). Make sure in the job JCL that the output is directed to a
spooled output device. See "Host Output Classes and Logical
Writers" earlier in this chapter. Use COPY, FCOPY or (for MPE V and MPE XL prior to release 2.1) the MPE
utility SPOOK to copy the output data set to another disk file, or
output the data set to tape or to an output device. Banner decode exit procedure You can configure your workstation to use an exit procedure
that you supply to parse the host banner page. As part of this procedure
you can execute an FOPEN and redirect the output data sets. See Appendix A “Parsing Algoithms and User Exit Procedures” for details.
