<snip> But I guess in the near future I need more: is it running, which step and how it ended/abended. I could use the internal reader, but the problem is that I don't get back the Jobid of the job and so I can't check (even not by looking into SDSF) if the submitted job has started..... <snip> You could send messages to yourself via the job itself. This is the poor-man's notification system. You can FTP a message, or use the messaging features. It all depends on how the two systems are configured, and what software you already have running between them. In the JCL you can use COND or IF/THEN/ELSE to let you know if the job ABENDED.
