Zeke doesn't monitor the console or syslog for messages to respond to, but our SyzMPF/z product is built just for that. It does what IBM's and CA's product does at about 1/10th the cost. Also, SyzMPF/z (when used with SyzMail/z) will automatically send email (at job or stc end, or anytime in between) with the highest condition codes, and all step codes and processing information, (as well as the tasks JES output if you want), without any JCL changes to any job. The output can be sent as email or SMS (text) messages.
Sorry for the "marketing type" email but we just surpassed our 300th client this month and I wanted to brag a little. http://www.syzygyinc.com/SyzMAILz.htm Brian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
