Hello Gurus, When we send a file to Mainframe system from our AIX Midrange server using NDM (Connect:Direct), the data is sent to the DATASET and available but we need to trigger a job after the DATA had been sent to the Mainframe system. The concern is to establish how this could be automated.
How to send a completion job to the mainframe System from AIX 5.0 using NDM. This works as a dummy posting job which we apply in the STRATUS-Mainframe Data exchanges.
How do we do the same when we send data from a Midrange system (AIX 5.0) to the mainframe system? The problem now is to send this type of posting job to mainframe OPC scheduler so that this could be used to trigger the JCL (ICEGENER).
I need ideas to do this automation since this trigger job is actually sending the data to a printer.
1. In midrange could NDM be used to trigger a submit job? Is there anyone familiar with the syntax or the NDM script to do that? 2. In mainframe could the file created be monitored by a tool. If this is created and regularly updated can this tool sense it or does the file needs to be created everytime a transfer is done for a tool to work. The tool to monitor file, can it trigger a dummy job. This job can be used then as a dependency for the ICEGENER JCLs.
