Accessing JOBID via DFSORT?

Postby BSvihraJr » Fri Jan 30, 2009 1:40 am

I know I can use...

Select all
//SYMNAMES DD *
JOB,S'&JOBNAME'
/*


...to get the job name. Wondering if I can also access the JES JOBID somehow also so I can write it out in a header record of an output file.

Thanks!

DFSORT's S-constants can use Dynamic system symbols, System-defined static system symbols and installation-defined static system symbols. I don't know if JOBID is available in that set. See the following for more information:
