JOB-LOG Job Attribute
For a job with the ATTACHMENT-SET attribute, log-file can specify a DEFINE
from the attachment set.
Considerations
•
The scheduler creates a spooler-job log file for a job without the JOB-LOG
attribute
if the job’s OUT attribute specifies a spooler collector process. The
scheduler does not create a log file if the OUT attribute specifies a device, a disk
file, or a nonspooler collector process.
•
To remove the JOB-LOG attribute from a job, use the ALTER JOB command’s
REMOVE JOB-LOG qualifier. For more information, see ALTER JOB Command on
page 6-62.
Examples
•
This example shows the submission and execution of a job whose OUT attribute
specifies a nonspooler process. The JOB-LOG attribute directs the job’s log-file
output to a terminal. Without the attribute, the job would not have a log file.

This example shows two similar jobs that send their output to a spooler. The first
job does not have the JOB-LOG attribute, so it has a log file and an executor-
program output file created in the spooler (spooler jobs 80 and 81 respectively).
The second job uses the JOB-LOG attribute to prevent log-file creation, so it has
an executor-program output file only (spooler job 82).
