RE: STRPASTHR in batch CL?

[Evan Harris <spanner@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You could also consider a CL that used a remote data queue to pass some 
parameters across to a server program and the SAVRSTOBJ command to shift the 
data. its also quicker than snads (according to the manual) 

I use a variation on this method where I monitor a message queue for a file 
received msg and then extract the details using a break handling program and 
process it.

Justa few thoughts to add to the others... if I had the time I'd definitely go 
with the remote data queue and the SAVRST* commands using object connect - 
check them out !

Let us know what you end up doing !

Unless there have been tremendous improvements in performance, DDM is not
the best solution-- DDM was originally intended as a means of retrieving 1,
2, or a few records from a remote system (ie an interactive inquiry program
to data on a remote system).

Larry Bolhuis' recommendation to use RUNRMTCMD is a good one.

We wrote our own program for moving a savf file between systems:  it's a
communication program to read a SAVF (you can read it in an RPG program
(528 Record Length??)), send the records across a comm link to the other
machine, where another RPG re-writes the records to a SAVF on the receiving
end.

Send and Receive NET Files can definitely be automated.

This program is faster than SNADS (mostly due to no error recovery, but it
works nicely between local systems).
