Issue/Introduction

How can the total number of sysouts in a View database be determined?

 

Environment

• View®
• OM View for z
• Output Management View® for z/OS

Resolution

You can use the SARGRW program to determine the total number of sysouts in a View database:

//XXXXXXXX JOB ... 
//SARGRW EXEC PGM=SARGRW 
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=VIEW.CVDELOAD 
//SORTWK01 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5),,CONTIG) 
//SORTWK02 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5),,CONTIG) 
//SORTWK03 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5),,CONTIG) 
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* 
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=* 
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* 
//PRTFILE DD SYSOUT=* 
//SYSIN DD * 
/CONTROL SEQ=RID DATABASE=view_hlq    <=== Modify DB name 
/TITLE 'COUNTING OF SYSOUTS' 
/DEFINE CNT BIN 
/SET CNT = CNT+1 
/ON ENDDATA 
/ PRINT RID 
/ PRINT 'TOTAL SYSOUTS = '||CNT COL(1) 
/END 
/* 
// 

Note: The above is a simple program, which should run quickly, doing only counting and only the necessary printing at the end.
