Issue/Introduction

For this example it is assumed the user wishes to resubmit Job A when it fails on a return code of 4 in step STEP02

1. Update Job Tracking Definition Table (JTDT) so that Job A is tracked under its own model:
   
   TRACKDEF JOB NAME(A) MODEL(TEST)
   
   
2. Create the tracking model:
   
   DEFTM TEST STEPFAILEVENT(CYBPROD.RESUB)
   
   
3. Create the event CYBPROD.RESUB
   
   EVENT ID(CYBNR01.RESUB) SYSTEM(ESP) REPLACE INVOKE 'CYBPROD.PROCLIB(RESUB)' ENDDEF
   
   
4. Create the procedure CYBPROD.PROCLIB(RESUB)

   If the monitored job (A) gets a return code of 4 in step STEP02 and the job is not a rerun then the job will be held, resubmitted, have a delaysub of five minutes added to it and then will be released.
