Greetings,
I am new to this forum and new to IBM MQ need a little guidance.
Being a ZOS developer, i am doing self learn on MQ , renting a USERID for practice.
I want to execute a batch JCL job thru application trigger.
Following are the steps i followed but failed to execute the Batch JCL
DEFINE QL(SBI.APPTRIG) <= successful
*
ALTER QL(SBI.APPTRIG) TRIGGER TRIGTYPE(FIRST) +
INITQ(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.INITIATION.QUEUE) +
PROCESS(SBI.PROCESS) <= successful
*
DIS QL(SBI.APPTRIG) <= tried to see the Queue, <= successful
*
DEFINE PROCESS(SBI.PROCESS) APPLICID('XXXXXXX.TEST.JCL(IEBGEN)')
APPLTYPE(MVS) <= successful
*
My trigger JCL is not executing when i put message on SBI.APPTRIG.
I am putting message thru JCL.
Regards All. |

What trigger monitor application (see midrange runmqtrm) are you using to submit the JCL to JES? There was a support pac MA12 that provided that service on MQ for z/OS.

If those are literally all the steps you did, then you are missing a trigger monitor.
A trigger monitor is an application that reads the initiation queue - I can see that you have defined the queue, but I am guessing you have nothing reading from it.
As noted, the only batch trigger monitor is the withdrawn MA12 support pac. However, you can grab a copy from here: https://community.ibm.com/community/user/discussion/zos-batch-trigger-monitor
Your process definition will probably need a change to match the format expected by the batch trigger monitor if you decide to use it. RUNDEFS job in the zip file has examples.
Cheers,
Morag

Or, you can write your own trigger monitor that MQGETs the trigger event message, and then submits the named jobstream off to JES.
Midrange runmqtrm source is provided in samples directory.
