If all your jobs are started from a scheduler or command prompt and idea
would be for you to write a job wrapper. Given job name as a parameter, this
script would log on as a job then stream the actual job you are interested
in. Get the job# from the new CIVARS and do a wait for that job to finish.
When your actual job logs off then wait is satisfied and you can then send
your messages from wrapper job.
If your jobs are imbedded within other jobs then this option fails the
restriction of not allowing job modification.

Hello all,

I got a lot of ideas for knowing when job starts and ends.
Thanks for time and effort.
Unfortunately, not answering my specific need, which is very rigid -
I can't get into job logic, neither change it.
the idea of getting a message from the system came from other OS - IBM's
AS400 where the Job Queue sends a message queue to whoever wants when job
ends.

I assume there isn't something a like in the HP3000.

Noam.
