APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• IBM z/OS Explorer - v3.0.0.6
  
  Description :
  When submitting a JCL, the job position is displayed in
  "My Jobs" list whereas the same job has an "ACTIVE" status in
  "Retrieved Jobs" list.
  Customer is expecting the position displayed in both lists.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• When a job is displayed under more than one RSE JES filter, the
  label describing the job can be inconsistent.  This has been the
   case from day one but, when the position attribute was
  introduced, the inconsistencies became readily apparent.
  

Problem conclusion

• The JES subsystem creates a new JES job instance for each job
  queried even if there are other JES job instances representing
  the same job.  That means when one job instance is refreshed,
  the other jobs don't automatically get updated.
  
  The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with
  IBM Rational Developer for z Systems V9.5.1.2 Fix Pack which
  is available from the Recommended Fixes support download page:
