sounds like you have a destid parm in jes2parm...
ck your def's---both locations...you have any other exits inplace that
mess with remote/dest id's??

Subject: JES2 "Node" Question
Dear Group,
I have been working with IBM to Implement a JES2 EXIT 40. I am doing
this without too much JES knowledge. I was asked to move output from one
MVS spool to another. We had a product (VPS) that would take the print
off the MVS spool and send it to remote printers. Now we don't run that
software at our "west side" location. I just want to change N1.U1234 to
N2.U1234. Then JES will ROUTE the output from N1 to N2. However the
change results in N1.U1234 being modified to N2.R1234. I did some testing
and things are not as I expected.
Q). On the SDSF screen - With the EXIT in place, Why doesn't Node reflect
my change to N2? RMT is now 1234. NODE is supposed to be the "JES Print
Node". I would expect the node to be the destination node.
From SDSF I entered NODE. It see N2, MN1 and OWNNODE. So we are #2
aka MN1.
Q). Is there an advantage to using "N2" over "MN1"? The terminology gets
confusing.
I tried this just to confuse myself:
I ran three jobs to print output, but I put them on HOLD. My OUTPUTS
were:
DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N4.U9889DP,CLASS=H
DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N2.U9889DP,CLASS=H *** OWNNODE ***
DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N12.U9889DP,CLASS=H
I looked at SDSF "O" and saw: RMT is Blank and NODE is "2" for all three.
DEST is LOCAL . The output for N2.U9889DP has an extra piece with DEST
U9889DP (The actual payload to print).
Q). Why doesn't "4" or "12" show up under NODE? I used "N4" and "N12".
Perhaps we have something in JES setup to change something to "R"? We
are testing this on two separate JES2 systems. They may not be the same,
and I sure don't know what is "normal". On one system I see SDSF output
with RMT as 7298, NODE as BLANK, and DEST as U7298.
Q). Why would this job have a BLANK NODE? The systems are different and
I bet the jobs we ran were different also. I guess it all "depends". I'm
just not sure what it all depends on.
The reason I ask is my assembler job is looking to match $OWNNODE to
PDBDNODE. I took out that line because I have no idea what these NODEs
should be. Right now I just change PDBDNODE regardless of what it was.
Please send help, Dave
