Hello,

I'm running a 24x7 job from the command line
example: 24x7 /JOB 6

Question: Is there away to have the job return
a specific error code? If I check the ErrorLevel
it is always showing a 3

Example:

C:\> 24x7 /JOB 6

C:\> echo %ERRORLEVEL%
3

C:\>

Thanks

The solution depends on job type. If this is a JAL script type job you can, for example,

Call "kernel32.dll", "ExitProcess", "u", False, 5

Here, 5 is your exit code.

Let me know which job type you run if you need a different solution

Thank you, It was a JAL script so that worked fine.

Just out of curiosity how would it be different for
the different job types?

Personally I've only used JAL and VBScript.
I have not created any Run exe/SQL jobs.

Thanks

"Call" is a JAL command. In VBScript you would need to use some COM component or 24x7 extension for VB or VB-to-JAL cross-language call. In batch jobs you can call the KillProcess utility or something similar to kill the entire tree and pass back some exit code. The most difficult part is database scripts, Something more complicated would be needed in that case
