Good to know that it atleast works in EE.

Correct chulett.

So... your question was some kind of a quiz? What the frak was the point of that?

If you knew the answer, just post it as a clarification. If you didn't, say "Thanks" and move on.

I didnt know the answer before. So I just did what you told me to do. Everything happened as you said.

Anyway belated 'Thanks' to you.

I just realized that this thread is in the Server forum and the solution with the job number that I posted was for Parallel jobs; so you are quite correct that it was the wrong answer.

You can get the job number by going into TCL or using the Admin command line and issuing a "LIST" or "SELECT" statement as posted earlier in this thread.

One question that wasn't asked is why you need the Job Number?

I've changed the post to be non-premium.

As said by ArndW, you can come to know the Job no by LIST command as well,

Code: Select all

LIST JOBNO DS_JOBS WITH NAME='<jobname>'

Please correct the SQL, ArndW.

[ArndW]

The LIST command is incorrect, ag_ram

Code: Select all

LIST DS_JOBS ID.SUP JOBNO WITH NAME EQ '{YourJobName}'

[ag_ram]

The LIST command is incorrect, ag_ram

Code: Select all

LIST DS_JOBS ID.SUP JOBNO WITH NAME EQ '{YourJobName}'

But i executed that SQL before posting, it results the job no which we want.

I wonder what was incorrect there.

[Incorrect is that the solution does not give the expected result.]

You could use the phrase as 'that LIST command could be refined as this' because suppressing the display of the record IDs is user's wish.

[ArndW]

ag_ram, your list command is incorrect. The syntax of the list command is

Code: Select all

| SYNTAX                                                                       |
|                                                                              |
|       LIST [DICT | USING [DICT] dictname] filename [records                  |
|          | FROM n] [selection] [output.limiter] [sort] [output]              |
|          [report.qualifiers]   

note, the first mandatory parameter is the filename. It just so happens that the inform engine is smart enough to parse the line looking for a filename from left to right, but if JOBNO were a filename you would get an incorrect result. I explicitly did not state that it should be refined because it is not correct.
