Chuck, would be that you specified an output class with outdisp=purge ? 
Happened to me a couple of times in various shops ;)

Betreff: Re: SMP/E APPLY output capture question

Thanks Christian, but I tried that already.
I changed the utility to use the DD name ASMPRINT and then coded an ASMPRINT DD 
with SYSYOUT=* and when the APPLY was executed I received nothing via that DD, 
the usermod was not applied and I received no errors indicating that there was 
a problem with the assembly or a problem in the APPLY.
Very misleading.

I will, however, try it again since you have indicated that it should work.
It is quite possible I did not have something quite right.

I'll update again when I have further news.

Subject: AW: SMP/E APPLY output capture question

Chuck,
in the SMP/E dialog select the global zone, under UTILITY select ASMA90 (or 
what else you might use), specify a print DD name and use this in your JCL and 
review the PARM statements.

Betreff: SMP/E APPLY output capture question

Hello Listers,

I am in need of capturing the output from an APPLY step, specifically the 
assembly and link output.
Currently my target zone has SYSPRINT defined as SYSOUT=*.
I have tried several things but, unless I've coded them incorrectly, they did 
not achieve the result I need.

I have tried supplying a defining a OUTPUT statement at the start of my job and 
then supplying a SYSPRINT DD with an OUTPUT= naming the OUTPUT statement's 
name. That didn't work, and I didn't get any indication from SMP/E as to 
errors, but my usermod was not applied.

I have tried defining the assembler utility as using an alternate SYSPRINT DD 
and then supplying that DD and I don't get the assembly output via the new DD 
name which I supplied in the JCL. In fact, I don't get any errors with that 
setup either but the usermod did not apply in the arrangement either.

Ultimately, what I want to accomplish it to have 2 copies of the output. One to 
go to our production control department as part of the documentation filed when 
locking down the source and the other to stay within our own library system so 
that if we have issues with the program being controlled, we have quicker and 
easier access to the current listing than we would if we had to go thru the 
production control library.

I can obtain the result I want, to a degree, if I manually change the output 
class, form and destination as we have JES writers to handle it, but I'd rather 
not have to remember to go and change the various JES attributes of the job if 
I can do it in the JCL.

If there is some way to cause SMP/E to spool its assembly and link steps to VIO 
that would be great as I could then follow the APPLY step with an IEBGENER and 
code SYSUT2 with the appropriate OUTPUT names and have the output handled as I 
want.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Chuck
