Status description and mapping for distributed jobs

The job status as described in Dynamic Workload Console and how it is defined in HCL Workload Automation.

There are the following types of status for distributed jobs:
Job status
A subset of internal status that is common for both HCL Workload Automation for distributed and HCL Workload Automation for Z environments.
Job internal status
The HCL Workload Automation job status registered on the workstation where the job is running. The internal status uniquely identifies a job status in HCL Workload Automation.
Job status
Job status lists the job statuses.
Table 1. Job status
This job status ... Means that ...
Waiting The job is waiting for its dependencies to be resolved.
Ready The dependencies of the job have been resolved and the job is ready to run.
Running The job is running.
Successful The job completed successfully.
Error The job stopped running with an error.
Canceled The job was canceled.
Held The job was put on hold.
Undecided The job status is currently being checked.
Blocked The job was blocked because of unfulfilled dependencies.
Suppressed by condition The job is suppressed because the condition dependencies associated to its predecessors are not satisfied.
Job internal status
Job internal status lists the job internal statuses.
Note: The + flag written beside the INTRO and EXEC statuses means that the job is managed by the local batchman process.
Table 2. Job internal status
This job status ... Means that ...
ABEND The job terminated with a nonzero exit code or with an exit code outside the defined RC mapping.
ABEND P An ABEND confirmation was received, but the job is not completed.
ADD The job is being submitted.
+AUTOGEN+ A monitoring job automatically created to monitor conditions in condition-based workload automation. For more information, see the section about condition-based workload automation in User's Guide and Reference.
BOUND For shadow jobs, it means that the shadow job matched a remote job instance in the remote plan. For HCL Workload Automation Agent, it means that the job is on the JES queue.
CANCEL The job was canceled.
CANCEL P The job is pending cancellation. Cancellation is deferred until all of the dependencies, including at time dependencies, are resolved.
DONE The job completed in an unknown status.
ERROR For internetwork and cross dependencies only, an error occurred while checking for the remote status.
EXEC The job is running.
EXTRN For internetwork dependencies only, the status is unknown. An error occurred, a rerun action was just performed on the job in the external job stream, or the remote job or job stream does not exist.
FAILED Unable to launch the job.
FENCE The job's priority is below the fence.
HOLD The job is awaiting dependency resolution.
INTRO The job is introduced for launching by the system.
PEND The job completed, and is awaiting confirmation.
READY The job is ready to launch, and all dependencies are resolved. If a job fails because the agent is not available, the job is automatically restarted and set to the READY status, waiting for the agent to connect again. As soon as the agent connects again, the job is submitted.
R JOB The job is running.
SCHED The job's at time has not arrived.
SUCC The job completed with an exit code of zero.
SUCC P A SUCC confirmation was received, but the job is not completed.
SUSP The job was blocked because of unfulfilled dependencies. For IBM i jobs only, this status indicates that the IBM i job is waiting for a reply to a message.

For more information, see Scheduling and monitoring jobs on IBM i systems.

USER STAT The job was put on hold by the user.
WAIT The job is waiting to fulfill its dependencies.
WAITD The job is waiting to fulfill its dependencies.
SUPPRESS The job is suppressed because the condition dependencies associated to its predecessors are not satisfied.
Job status mapping
Job status mapping describes how a job status is mapped to the corresponding job internal status.
