Preventing the production of a job log

 

Preventing the production of a job log is useful if you already know that you will not need the job log and you want to conserve system resources. When you specify that you do not want to produce a job log, the job log will not be produced and remains in pending until removed either by the Remove Pending Job Log (QWTRMVJL) command or the End Job (ENDJOB) command. To prevent the production of a job log, follow the following instructions:

  1. In iSeries™ Navigator open the Job Properties - Job Log window. (My Connections > connection > Work Management > Active Jobs (or System Jobs) > Right-click the job > Properties > Job Log tab)

  2. Uncheck the Produce a job log box and click OK.
