Issue/Introduction

Unable to see jobs from the JES2 spool using the Vantage web client for  z/OS System Resources -> 'Jobs in System' object.

Resolution

To display the job list on Vantage web client  Object tree -> z/OS System Resources -> 'Jobs in System' object, need to use input list as specified in the Help screen.

Input list cab be found via the Object Settings 'gear' icon on the object toolbar top right corner, with the selection of the "Input List()" drop down menu.

For example, to display all jobs that begin with VAN, specify j(van* under input list.

Note: There is no closing parenthesis.

To specify an owner simply enter the owner into the input list. Wildcards may be specified.

The default input list is specified by the system variable JOBSUSID  which is coded as %%USERID%%. That is, the default input list requests YOUR jobs.

To request ALL jobs on the system the input list should contain a single asterisk:     *
