Michael Off the top of my head I can think of the following options (outside of any job scheduling software solution).
(1) Use the IEFACTRT exit (job/step termination exit) - however this might be overkill for you. (2) Write an assembler program that always gets control as the last job step and process the JCT and SCT control blocks - (not sure about the GUPI status of these) (3) Write some basic sort of checkpointing pgm that gets control as last job step and writes data depending on success/failure of job and/or steps (4) Post process the SMF data hunting for type-30 records using SORT or a freeware tool like DAF.

Can SMF be "monitored" (and how?) or do I need to SMF to a file and parse the file?
