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.

> You can also check SMF.

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

Thank you,
Michael
