We use the RDR for that. We send a file to the linux guest. On the console it is noted that a rdr file has arrived. The console automation (PROP) triggers a script that processes RDR files. The script determines what the name and origin for the file is and based on a config file it can run various scripts depending on the filename/origin it has to process. And no cron is needed for this.

No Problem Alan :) Well, not enough, we really would like to be able to signal from z/VM that: 'go and get some new data from that cmsfile I have told you the name of before' without having to use cron. That way, we can start things without having a number of crons using cpu. And without delay.
