Examples

   1.$ SHOW ENTRY/BY_JOB_STATUS=RETAINED
     Entry    Jobname       Username    Blocks      Status
     -----    -------       --------    ------      ------
       422    FORECAST      JONES                   Retained on completion
              On stopped generic batch queue CLUSTER_BATCH
              Completed 21-DEC-2001 16:18 on queue NODE_BATCH

     In this example, the SHOW ENTRY command displays a job entry
     that was retained on completion.

   2.$ SHOW ENTRY/FULL S*
     Entry     Jobname      Username    Blocks     Status
     -----     -------      --------    ------     ------
       625     STAFF        ESTES          112     Pending (queue stopped)
               On stopped printer queue LN01$PRINT
               Submitted 19-DEC-2001 12:14 /FORM=LN01$PORTRAIT
               (stock=DEFAULT) /NOTIFY /PRIORITY=100
               File: _DKA1:[ESTES]STAFF.DIS;3

       629     SEARCH         ESTES          94      Printing
               On printer queue LINE$PRINT
               Submitted  19-DEC-2001 12:16 /FORM=DEFAULT /NOTIFY
               /PRIORITY=100 /COPIES=2 /NOFEED /PASSALL
               File: _DKA1:[ESTES.DAILY]SEARCH.TXT;2 (printing copy 2)

     In this example, the SHOW ENTRY command displays the current
     jobname entries beginning with the letter "S" owned by ESTES
     on all queues. The /FULL qualifier lists the submission
     information, the full file specification, and the current
     settings for the job.

     Note that entry 629 specified the /COPIES, /NOFEED, and
     /PASSALL qualifiers to the PRINT command. The /NOFEED qualifier
     suppresses automatic form feeds. The /PASSALL qualifier
     suppresses formatting (including form feeds and carriage return
     characters) performed by the print symbiont.

   3.$ SUBMIT ASSIGNMENTS.COM
     Job ASSIGNMENTS.COM (queue SYS$BATCH, entry 199) pending
        .
        .
        .
     $ SHOW ENTRY 199/FULL
     Entry    Jobname       Username     Status
     -----    -------       --------     ------
       199    ASSIGNMENTS   JONES        Executing
              Submitted 19-DEC-2001 08:36 /KEEP /NOLOG/ NOPRINT
              /PRIORITY=100
              File: DUA2:[JONES]ASSIGNMENTS.COM;34

     In this example, JONES submits ASSIGNMENTS.COM for batch
     processing. Because JONES does not specify a specific queue,
     the job is entered into the generic SYS$BATCH queue to await
     processing. After performing other tasks, JONES checks the job
     status and sees that the file is now executing. Note that the
     job entry migrated from a generic to an execution batch queue
     and that JONES was able to check the job status without knowing
     the specific batch queue name. If the user did not specify an
     entry number, all jobs would have been displayed.
