-
- Lacking any better ideas, I suppose that you could do some IEFSSREQ
- call, like cancel/status. There's a specific return code for "JES
- not up."
-
- If you want a q&d method, you could pick up the primary JES name from
- JESPJESN (macro is IEFJESCT) and search for its SSCT (macro IEFJSCVT),
- then check for something like SSCTSSVT and SSCTSUSE being non-zero.
- Note: This is theory. You'll have to test it.
