If there is an exit involved, only someone at your site (who developed and installed the exit) can tell you how to activate it. Something like that is completely specific to the site and only someone working AT YOUR SITE could possibly tell you this.

I've been working with HASP (JES2's father) and JES2 for 40+ years, and I can't recall that there was ever an option to disable the JES2 job log.

Just to be sure, I went to the manuals, and discovered the JESLOG=SUPRESS, and LOG=NO options in the JOBCLASx (where x is a job class) JES2 initialization statement. If your shop allows you to enter this operator command from SDSF, you might try entering /$djobclass(x) where x is the job class you were using in the SDSF command line, and if it's allowed you will get back multiple lines that show the settings for the job class.

Hello and welcome to the forum,

How I can activate the exit that generate JES2 Job Log?
As you can see from the replies, not everyone has the same understanding of your question. . .

It will help if you define/describe "the exit".

If you had what you want, what would you be able to do that you are not able to do now?

Oh yes, I forgot about

/*JOBPARM NOLOG

The JCL Reference Manual mentions /*JOBPARM L, but it's not clear if that is a positive to reverse NOLOG, or just an alias for NOLOG.

The equivalent of NOLOG can also be specified in the JOB statement, but the JCL Reference manual just refers you to a JES2 manual for more information, and that manual isn't very helpful. 40+ years ago I had this stuff memorized, but my memory banks have lost this information. In any event, JES2 exits can negate the standard JES2 scan.

Just an update to the previous post. Only the JES2 account field scan exits can affect this parameter.
