We have a batch job that is failing to send the SMTP email we want it
to send. We have a number of other batch jobs that are working just fine in
this regard.
Unlike the working jobs, which are submitted by our job-scheduler, this
one is submitted via a CICS transaction using a TD queue. The CICS-region's
authority user-ID has authority through a profile in the SURROGAT class to
submit the job using the FIDUFLX1 ID (a functional or non-personal ID) that is
supposed to run the batch job. The JCL and control cards for the job, as
submitted, are:
//SUBUBF1H JOB 021210F00210P,H,CLASS=G,MSGCLASS=U,USER=FIDUFLX1
//STEP00 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1 DD DSN=UN.UB.PD.UBCUBF1.MAIL,UNIT=(,,DEFER),
// DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE),SPACE=(CYL,1)
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=SYNCSORT
//STEPLIB DD DSNAME=SYS1.SORTLIB,DISP=SHR
//SORTIN DD *
-- in-stream message records to go into the *.UBCUBF1.MAIL --

//SORTOUT DD DSNAME=UN.UB.PD.UBCUBF1.MAIL,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),

control cards as follows
SMTPNOTE BATCH -
SUBJECT(' ERROR IN PARAGRAPH GET-WAGES (UBF1) <-- or some other
subject statement
') -
DATASET('UN.UB.PD.UBCUBF1.MAIL') -
TO(fluid...@awi.--rest-of-address--) BATCH
/*
/*EOF
I do note that the control statements have the word 'BATCH' present
twice, first immediately after the "SMTPNOTE" parameter, and again after the
email address. I am not sure if this is connected to the problem or not.
The job's run-authority ID (FIDUFLX1) has an alias to a user-catalog,
since our experience has shown that this is needed for at least one dataset
that SMTP allocates.
The results from the 'STEP02' job-step are:
READY
SMTPNOTE BATCH SUBJECT(' ERROR IN PARAGRAPH GET-WAGES (UBF1)
')
DATASET('UN.UB.PD.UBCUBF1.MAIL') TO(fluid...@awi.--rest-of-address--) BATCH
EZA5580E UNABLE TO DELETE TEMPORARY DATASET '.SMTPPR.TEMP.TEXT'
READY
SMTPPR is the name of our mainframe SMTP started task. Please note
that the temporary dataset it is attempting to delete is '.SMTPPR.TEMP.TEXT'
and is lacking a high-level-qualifier, which is the obvious reason why the
temporary dataset cannot be built or deleted.
As far as I can tell, everything for this job's ID is set up the same
as for the IDs whose (normal) batch jobs are successfully sending SMTP emails.
Any ideas on what I am overlooking or missing???
