Output of a job log

z/OS Batch Runtime Planning and User's Guide
SA23-1376-00

Job log output is collected in a directory which has the format:

specified_root/joblogs/job-directory/timeStamp-directory
In this directory path:
  • specified_root is the root directory for your logs.
  • job-directory is generated at run time from the job name. For example, if the job ID is PostingsSampleEar:99, then the generated directory name is PostingsSampleEar_99.
  • timeStamp-directory Is generated at run time from the current date. It is in the format ddmmyyy_hhmmss, where dd is the day of the month, mm is a month (00 - 11), and yyyy is the year. hh is the hour of the day (00 - 23), mm is the minute of the hour (00 - 59) and ss is the seconds of the minutes (00 - 59). For example, a timestamp directory with the name 14022010_164535 means that the job began processing on 14 Mar 2010, at 16:45:35.

The job log output contains both application output and batch endpoint runtime messages. This output includes any application generated output directed to the System.out and System.err output streams. Job log output from the common batch container is collected in the job log directory in files with names such as part.1.log and part.2.log. Each of the log parts contains approximately 1000 records. The following example shows the contents of part.1.log:
