PIPE command on zOS Platforms

2020-07-22 Thread Jasi Grewal 
Hi,

I have a z/OS System and unfortunately I cannot use PIPE commands in Rexx 
Programs.
It states 'PIPE command not found' and does a Customer have to pay for the z/OS 
Feature to use PIPE's under Rexx Program.

Which Product does a Customer have to order or enable to allow a user to use 
PIPE commands.

Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,

Regards,
Jasi Grewal.

Sadly Pipes is not available in native z/OS - it is available in the SmartBatch 
- the cover letter is here 
https://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/cgi-bin/ssialias?infotype=DD&subtype=SM&htmlfid=897/ENUS5655-A17
 - unfortunately  this is really overkill if all you want is Pipes.

Here is an RFE you can vote on requesting IBM to integrate Pipes into the base 
z/OS https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=47699

Hope this helps - please vote on the RFE and that may help to 'nudge' IBM but 
don't hold your breath.
