Work with Spooled file Monitor - Data Queue

Scroll Prev Top Next More

This is accessed by pressing the F10=Data Queue key on the Spooled file Monitor details. Note: If you change the Data Queue for an entry, then all other entries using the same Output Queue will also be changed, as the Data Queue is linked to the Output Queue. From v6.2.82 or above a screen will be displayed showing how many entries this change would affect.

Note: In Cobwebb Server v6.2.61 and prior, a maximum of five SPLMON jobs may be started in the CPPD subsystem i.e. 5 different data queues. If you do create more than 5 data queues then only the first 5 jobs will be started in the CPPD Subsystem and you will see a message in the CPPD subsystem startup joblog. In newer versions the maximum has been increased to 1000.

Entries

Data Queue Name

The name of the data queue that you wish to used to run this SPLMON job.  The data queue must already exist with a 'Max len' of 128 characters, or you will be asked to use F6=Create Data queue to automatically create the data queue.  The default is SPLMON and this data queue already exists.  

If you are monitoring a large number of output queues then you may wish to start more than one SPLMON job in the CPPD subsystem.  For each other job you wish to run you must create another data queue e.g. SPLMONA. You may then use this data queue to process more than one output queue.
