7.3.27 OUTPUT_MODE_CHILD parameter (defines the method for outputting the execution results of a child job)

Syntax

#-adsh_conf OUTPUT_MODE_CHILD {EXTENDED|SIMPLE|MINIMUM}

Description

This parameter specifies one of the following modes for output of the execution results of a child job:

• Expansion output mode (default)

• Simple output mode

• Minimum output mode

By selecting the simple output mode, you can suppress information messages and output only the command execution results, making it easier for other programs to use the job execution results. By selecting the minimum output mode, you suppress output of more messages than when you use the simple output mode.

Standard output and standard error output are output to the destinations that were set when the child job was started.

When a child job is executed with the -m option specified in the adshexec command for starting the child job, the -m option takes precedence over the specification of this parameter.

For details of each output mode, see the following:

• 2.6.8 Defining job execution results and log output information

• 3.4.1 Specifying the destinations of the standard output and the standard error output

• 3.4.2 Outputting job execution results to spool

• 3.4.4 Suppressing output of information and warning messages to job execution logs

• 3.5.1 Outputting the contents of the job execution log by job type

• 3.5.4 Examples of job execution log output (when the simple output mode or the minimum output mode is selected)

• 12.2 Message output destinations

Operands

EXTENDED

Specifies the extended output mode. Information is output after execution of the child job as follows:

• The job execution log is output to the standard error output when the child job terminates.

• Messages that the job controller outputs to standard error output and standard output are all output.

SIMPLE

Specifies the simple output mode. Information is output after execution of the child job as follows:

• The job execution log is not output to the standard error output when the child job terminates.

• The messages the job controller outputs to standard error output and standard output are limited to error messages. Error messages that are output to JOBLOG are output to the standard error output.

MINIMUM

Specifies the minimum output mode. Information is output after execution of the child job as follows:

• No job execution log is output to the standard error output when the child job terminates.

• The messages the job controller outputs to standard error output and standard output are limited to error messages, excluding notifications of command, job step, and job termination codes. Messages notifying receipt of signals and events are also suppressed. Unlike the simple output mode, the suppressed messages are not output to JOBLOG under the spool job directory.

  Error messages that are output to JOBLOG are output to the standard error output.

JP1/Advanced Shell inherits the parent process's output mode until the analysis of environment setting parameters is finished.

Notes

• If this parameter is defined in both the system environment file and the job environment file, the definition in the job environment file takes effect.
