John,
The file into which you are sending the SHOWJOB (or LISTF), and from which
you are then reading records to process the list, must be built as a message
file ";MSG" so that reading a record will destroy that record and allow you
to access the next.
If you are already doing this, please include your script (JCL) with a
repost of your message and one of us should be able to diagnose your
problem.
Hope this helps,
Rs~

Subject: [HP3000-L] How to parse a Session Name from a TEMP File
Hello folks:
This has stymied myself for a coupla hours so I figure that I need the
wisdom of the 3000-l:
In a Job I wish to perform a LISTF to a Temp file that I then use as input.
I want to select out of this Temp file Session Numbers for passing to, say,
an Abortjob command. Presently, I am attempting to restream the output of
the LISTF to an INPUT command using the backreference "<".
The challenge seems to be that I am only getting the first occurrence (i.e.
first record) of the LISTF. So, not a help if I have say a half-dozen
sessions I want to get off the system at a given time.
Yes, there are better ways of doing this thing, so:
1) a better way to do this is welcome, and
2) why does this approach through the INPUT JOBNAM < INPFIL construct
where INPFIL is the TEMP file from LISTF, not function?
I placed the INPUT in a WHILE loop which loops forever(!).
TIA
