If you are on MPE/iX 6.5 you might try the following:

Use your parser to get the job number of the streaming job,
use jinfo to see who streamed it. Keep going back until you
get to the streaming session identifier. This should do what
you want.

Subject: Passing HPSTREAMEDBY from one job to another.


Hi everyone,

We have a command file, called jobtell, that uses MPEX's %WARNF command
to
display a message over the function keys of the session who :STREAMed it
(extracts the session number from the HPSTREAMEDBY variable). It works
and
the users love it. Hurrah!!!!!!!! I now have to get a job :STREAMed by
another job to send a message to the session that started it all (hope
that
this makes sense to you). This means that I have to somehow pass the
first
jobs HPSTREAMEDBY to all subsequent jobs.

Apart from getting the first job to build the second job (echo commands
to a
temporary file) and then :STREAM it I can see no other solution at the
moment.

Any ideas?

regards,
