Re: Submit SSH Command to submit remote command with Parameters






Hiya Andrew,

I would add the -n switch to the ssh command.  That tells it not to 
attempt to get input from stdin (which, in your example, would be the 
keyboard -- and that might cause problems in batch!)

I would also add (at a minimum) the QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT environment 
variable to tell QShell to write the output to a log file instead of the 
user's screen.  and the QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG to help you detect errors.

PGM
  DCL VAR(&CMD) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(1000)

  ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG) VALUE(Y) +
           REPLACE(*YES)

  ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT) +
            VALUE('FILE=/tmp/sshcmd.log') +
            REPLACE(*YES)

  CHGVAR VAR(&CMD) VALUE('ssh -T SFTPTST@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx +
      ''system "sbmjob cmd(CALL PGM(QGPL/XXXXXXX) +
       parm(''DANNYT'' ''Joe.Blogs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx'')) +
       job(SRVDPRF) HOLD(*YES) JOBQ(QBATCH) "''')

  QSH CMD(&CMD)
  MONMSG MSGID(QSH0000) EXEC(DO)
     SNDMSG MSG('Command failed! See /tmp/sshcmd.log') +
           TOUSR(*REQUESTER)
  ENDDO

ENDPGM

-then-

SBMJOB CMD(CALL THE-ABOVE-PGM) JOB(SRVDPRF) JOBQ(QBATCH)
