When connected to a z/OS® system the Jobs view lists the completed and running jobs that you are authorized to view, and that match the job name prefix and owner ID that you specify. The number of jobs you see in the view depends on the JESENTRYLIMIT value set in the FTP server; the default value is 200. You can expand a job in the view to show the ddnames associated with the spool files, and open the spool files in an editor view to show the content.
You must be connected to an FTP server on your host system before you can view any jobs. See the related links later in this topic for further information about configuring system connections.
The Jobs view shows the same information that you see when you
are viewing jobs in the Held Output Queue in ISPF, and using the same
job name prefix. You can click the Menu icon and choose to display all jobs or only output, active or
input jobs.
Each type of job is indicated by an icon. The job icons are listed in the following table:
Icon | Job type |
---|---|
![]() |
The Job icon. The icon is followed by the Job name and the Job ID. |
![]() |
The icon for a job that has not run successfully. |
![]() |
The icon for a job that is running. |
