Configuring APU Monitor Action

To set up APU Monitor actions, you need to access item 8 on the APU Main menu, Configure APU Monitor Action. This selection displays an initial panel, followed by several additional panels.

This section describes each part of a Monitor action. Each action has the following three parts:

vSelection for input spooled file

vAction for input spooled file

vAction for output spooled file

The Configure APU Monitor Action display allows you to create, change, copy, and delete actions. Each action is performed in the sequence shown on the display by the APU print engine.

F22 key is used to renumber the entries automatically. The renumbering uses an increment of 10 unless the number of records is greater than 999. In that case the increment will be calculated depending on the number of records.

At runtime the monitor will retrieve the SCS spooled file attributes and try to find a matching entry. The monitor evaluates the entries in the order of the user-entered sequence numbers. As soon as the monitor finds a match, it processes the spooled file according to the rest of the information in the table. If is does not find a match in the table, a message is put into the monitor's joblog and the spooled file is not processed.
