Adding RPTMON command to the AS/400 Job Scheduler

From Support

Listed below are the steps to add the AS/400 Report Splitter output queue monitor to the AS/400 job scheduler:

1.) Go to the AS/400 job scheduler by typing WRKJOBSCDE from the AS/400 command line.

2.) To create a new job scheduler entry, press F6.

3.) On the Add Job Schedule Entry (ADDJOBSCDE) screen, enter the following parameters:

Job Name: RPTMON

Command to run: SBMJOB CMD(RJSSPLIT/RPTMON OUTQ(QGPL/INPUTOUTQ) SPLFOPT(*MARK) DELAY(*DELAY) DLYTIM(300)) JOB(RPTMON) JOBQ(QSYSNOMAX) LOG(4 0 *NOLIST) LOGCLPGM(*YES)

• • Note: the above example command is a sample which reads an output queue called INPUTOUTQ and processes reports every 5 minutes. We sent this entry to job queue QSYSNOMAX which is multi-threaded.

• • Note: By using the LOG and LOGCLPGM parameters, the above example command will also create a printed job log in the QEZJOBLOG output queue in case job log analysis is needed for problem resolution.

• • Warning: Some job queues such as QBATCH are single-threaded and will get backed up until the output queue monitor completes, so using QSYSNOMAX is a good idea unless you need single threading.

Job Frequency: Enter the job scheduling parameters such as: Frequency, Schedule Date, Day, Time, etc...

4.) Press Enter the save the new job scheduler entry.
