I'm still a bit slow as I'm recoverying from whatever it was that made me sick last week, but I think your question can be rephrased as follows. <question> I have a user who can uses an OMVS/UNIX shell session. This user then issues an OMVS/UNIX command. This OMVS/UNIX command executes as an STC. Is there some way for this user to submit a batch job which will do the same command? </question> Unfortunately, the answer, as usual, is "it depends on what the command does." Some commands, such as "vi" are designed to be interactive with a terminal user. Others can accept commands from a file or "stdin" and output their results to a file of "stdout". If the command that the person is issuing at the keyboard is able to read a file for input and write a file for output, then he should be able to write some JCL which can do the equivalent. As an example, suppose that the command something like "encrypt" (not a real command). This command will "encrypt" a file and writes the output to stdout. A normal shell user might invoke this command something like: encrypt input-file -k encryption-key >encrypted-output-file. To run this as a batch job, you could create JCL similar to: //MYJOB JOB //STEP1 EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH, // PARM='encrypt input-file -k encryption-key >encrypted-output-file' //STDOUT DD PATH='/u/user/stdout', // PATHOPTS=(OCREAT,OAPPEND,OWRONLY) //STDERR DD PATH='/u/user/stderr', // PATHOPTS=(OCREAT,OAPPEND,OWRONLY) //STDIN DD PATH='/dev/null', // PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY) // The user can create this as a text file in his home subdirectory. There are two ways to then submit the JCL to run. The first is to have Bill Schoen's "submit" UNIX shell script. This will send the contents of the file to the INTRDR, similar to the TSO SUBMIT command. If you don't have this script (downloadable somewhere at IBM), then you can do it "the hard way". You can submit a job via "ftp". The general commands to do so would be: ftp 127.0.0.1 myuser mypass quote site filetype=jes put myjob.jcl quit This assumes that "myjob.jcl" contains the JCL above. You can also use ftp to retrieve the job output later. You'll need to read up on this in the books. I'm not up to trying to explain all of it quite yet <tired, very tired>. Of course, the really easy way is to create the JCL in TSO and use normal TSO/ISPF/SDSF stuff to run the job. I hope that I understood your question correctly and was able to help answer it. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
