Issue/Introduction

How to suppress the responses from an ESP command in an Application?

Resolution

Replace the ESP statement with ESPNOMSG. (Most commands issued in ESP Workload Manager produce a response that is routed back to the Event owner.)

With ESPNOMSG coded, only warnings and errors are received.

Example: 

JOB TRIGGER.EVENT LINK PROCESS
  RUN DAILY
  ESP TRIGGER <eventnm>.TEST ADD
ENDJOB

Messages received by the owner of the Event:

    2578I MESSAGE FROM EVENT <eventnm>.TEST
    2502I EVENT TRIGGERED

Using ESPNOMSG for the same Job in an Application:

JOB TRIGGER.EVENT LINK PROCESS
  RUN DAILY
  ESPNOMSG TRIGGER <eventnm>.TEST ADD
ENDJOB 

No messages are received when the job runs.
