I do this all the time, to a certain extent.

On jobs that I would-like/need to know what happens, as the last step I
execute a canned two-step proc.  The first step runs some internal control
blocks to print a "report" of all condition codes for all prior steps.  The
second step, using I*GENER, will take that report and then email it to me,
or as a text message to my cell phone.

I*GENER copies SYSUT1 to SYSUT2 SYSOUT=(B,SMTP)

Been doing something like this since the late 90's.

Any questions, just ask.

Subject: How to page from the mainframe


I am not VTAM or TCPIP savy, so if someone could guide me in the right
direction.

What is the best way to send a page from the mainframe to a pager? 

What equipment?
What software?
Do I need to send it to a midrange/server device?

I am hoping to see if we can create a stronger roll of the mainframe in our
environment.
