Passing job standard output from one job to another in the same job stream instance

You can export the job standard output from one dynamic job to a successive job in the same job stream instance. The job standard output variable is used in the script field of the job definition

To add a job standard output within another job definition, to have it resolved locally on the agent at run time, use the following syntax:

${job:<JOB_NAME>.stdlist}

where <JOB_NAME> is the name or the alias name of the job from which you are exporting the job standard output.

Example

In this example, the WIN92MAS_REW#VP_JS_141800058 job stream contains JOBA_ALIAS that is the JOBA alias and JOBB jobs. The JOBB executable job references the JOBA_ALIAS standard output.

The database definitions:

:
WIN92MAS_REW#JOBA as JOBA_ALIAS
