Event-filtering exit (EQQUX004)

EQQUX004 is called when an HCL Workload Automation for Z event writer is about to write an event to the event data set or, where EWSEQNO is used, add the event to an XCF or NCF queue. In this exit, you can choose to discard events created by JES and SMF exits, or you can indicate that an event that would normally be queued to JCC is not processed by the JCC.

This exit is commonly used to filter the events created by nonproduction work. If you run a significant number of test jobs and other work, and your job naming standards let you do so, consider using EQQUX004 to filter the nonproduction work. The sample library SEQQSAMP that was created during installation contains the EQQUX004 exit, which is a sample of event-filtering exits.
