I tried to make that work once upon a long time ago. If I recall correctly at
the time there was some kludge random number bolt on thing that had to
be used and was of questionable stability? Has it matured? That's one thign I
have long wanted IBM to include in os/390 and then z/OS as part of the
'environment'.
I sense I would lose the ability to run the scripts from a RACF secured PDS in
that environment and have to keep copies on all linux systems for which
that script would be run.
I presume the SSH offering is much more mature now than it was 5 years ago?

If you have the no-cost SSH add-on for z/OS installed, I don't see why
that couldn't be used to run scripts on your Linux systems from a dialog
or a batch job step.

Subject: Seeking a recommendation on an ISPF and/or batch to Linux
interface
We have been playing with stonebranch universal command to do some nifty
ISPF interface stuff and batch to Linux stuff, but going into prod with
this setup is making management have a cat. $5200 per Linux IMAGE on
z/OS and 3600 per Linux image on Intel. We'd never be using it that
much.
What is has allowed us to do is easily run a Linux script from the step
of a batch job on z/OS on a targeted Linux system.
This has allowed us to make a WebSphere component
shutdown/startup/status ISPF dialogue, as well as be able to keep the
scripts we wish to run in a RACF secured dataset on z/OS disk so that
the scripts do not live on the z/Series Linux guests at all, merely run
there and then end.
The good folken at Sine Nomine did an nje/rje thing, but I'm not sure if
that fits the bill or not.
What I'm looking for is some way to drive events on Linux from within
ISPF or z/OS batch processes to replicate what I have now without 65,000
in license charges.
Anyone have any ideas?
