One of our developers has asked that we run a script that they wrote every 3-5 minutes on our iSeries. &nbsp;The script is set up to see if a particular port is open - and if it isn't, then to start their application.<br />
<br />
The script is a .sh (monitor.sh) file located in the IFS.<br />
<br />
Is there any easy way to do this?
