DSXchange

Hello Every one,

I am trying to write a routine that return error message text. So far, any DSJOB functions that I used, return the error code. Ex. If job aborted it will return status = 3 aborted. Is any way to return the error message that descript the error in text format.
Thank you in davance.

Are you attempting to use the dsjob command line program for starting jobs?

Can you please post the EXACT command you are running and the EXACT error messages supplied?

Simply looking in the job log will reveal the error most of the time. Resetting the job will retrieve the error information most of the rest of the time.
