Returning text error message

Post by neeku@aol.com »

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.

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.
