Use the Retrieve Job action to add
jobs to the JES subsystem without defining a filter.
- In the Remote Systems view, select JES and
then select Retrieve Job from the pop-up menu
or press Ctrl+J. The Retrieve
Job window opens. The text entry field on this window can
be prefilled two ways:
- If you have performed previous searches, the last search pattern
used is shown in the text entry field.
- If you have submitted a job by using the Submit menu
item from the Remote Systems or z/OS
Projects view or by using the submit line
command from the from System z® LPEX Editor, the job ID of the last job submitted is shown
in the text entry field.
- Type a job name pattern to search for and press Enter. Matching jobs are listed in the window. The jobs are sorted
by job name and then by job ID so that the most recent jobs are at
the top of the list. The window also displays the number of matches.
- Optional: You can type a new search pattern
to update the list of matches. If you type an invalid
job name pattern, for example, or if you receive a large number of
matches, you can change the search pattern to retry the search or
narrow down the list of matches.
- Optional: To save the search pattern as a new
filter, click Add these matches to a new filter.
- Optional: To open the job output for a job
on the list, select the job name and click Open.
- Select the job you want and click OK. The job selected is added to the Retrieved
Jobs filter in the JES subsystem and highlighted in the
view. This filter saves the last five retrieved jobs. If you selected Add
these matches to a new filter, all matching jobs are added
to the new filter and the selected job is highlighted there.
Note: The Retrieved
Jobs filter is a system controlled filter. Its unique
status is indicated visually by a unique icon: a filter icon superimposed
with a pushpin. The only way to populate this filter is by using the Retrieve
Job window. You cannot maintain this filter, change its
contents, rename it, or delete it. To add search results to a filter
that you can maintain, use the Add these matches to a new
filter option.
