Thanks once again. 
 
We were able to issue a "SET FCTL" command inside STATN and then Text
and view the entire STDLIST appropriately with all the Suprtool and
Suprlink output record counts. 
 
To roll this back, we just had to issue a "SET NOFCTL" command. This
command has to be executed because the "SET FCTL" command is a permanent
one, irrespective of whether you exit out of STATN or logout of your
session. 
 

With Best Regards

Dear Raghu,
 
An educated guess would be in how the spool file is moved and/or being
listed. What happens if you 
list with Display functions on? A guess would be that CCTL was munged in
one of the moves/copies.
 
I am not sure that I understand how the output files/stdlists are
processed and who or what is looking
at them, but that is where I would start to look. The first step is to
list them with display functions, you
may see that the lines are there but with an extra or odd escape
sequence.
 
Sincerely,

	Hi all, 

	We observed a strange problem over the weekend. Our production
jobs run and produce output file as usual in OUT.HPSPOOL. From there,
its picked up by CONMAN and then eventually moved to STATN. The original
copy from OUT.HPSPOOL is purged and the history of last 50 jobs runs are
maintained in the STATN records. 

	We have a job that runs daily. The job as such completed
successfully fine and does not show any abend or aborts. The job
executes Suprtool step. It's a fairly simple step and has been running
fine all these years. The job run listing shows perfectly fine on Friday
nights run, but is missing some line numbers in the Thursday nights run.
The line numbers on the job run listing 417, 433 and 453-454 appear fine
on the Friday's run. These lines are basically the output count from the
Suprtool and Suprlink statements.

	But these similar output on Thursday's job run is missing these
line numbers. Basically, the line numbers 417 and 433 are missing and we
are not able to determine the outfile file records counts from those
steps.

	Has anyone else noticted this strange behaviour before ? Is this
a STATN or a SUPRTOOL, SUPRLINK issue ? OR is it time to change my
glasses ?
