No, there's not currently a way to have a sub-job wait for the STAX
Monitor to start monitoring it before the job starts execution.
Note that a message logged in the STAX Job User Log is persistent, unlike
a message sent to the STAX Monitor which is only displayed if the job is
currently being monitored by the STAX Monitor running on any machine(s).
Also, the number of messages displayed in the "Messages" table in the STAX
Monitor is limited by default to the most recent 200 messages (though you
can change this via the STAX Monitor Properties). And, when you stop
monitoring a STAX job, any messages sent while the job isn't being
monitored are not displayed. So, messages sent only to the STAX Monitor
can easily be "lost". If it is important that you see messages for your
sub-job, then you should consider logging the messages to the STAX Job
User Log as messages logged in the STAX Job User Log are persistent.
For example, if you're using the <message> element to send messages to the
STAX Monitor, you can add the log attribute to it to also log it in the
STAX Job User Log. For example: <message log="1">'This is my
message</message>
Note that the log attribute value defaults to the STAXLogMessage variable
whose value will default to 0 (false). But you can set STAXLogMesasage =
1 to turn on logging (for the whole job or just within a function or
block, etc).
Then you can view your STAX Job User Log for the sub-job and your messages
will always be there (no matter whether you're monitoring the sub-job or
not).

Subject: Startig STAX SubJobs in <paralleliterate>^
Hi Sharon,
my STAX Job is starting 4 SubJobs from a <paralleliterate> using <job
name=”xyz” monitor=”True”>.
Unfortunately, the monitor windows for the SubJobs are missing the first
few messages from the
SubJobs. Surely, I could insert a delay at the beginning of the Jobs, but
that is not a sane method
I think.
It would be better to make the Jobs wait for the monitor to come up. Is
there a way to do this?
