RE: Job Scheduler 5769-JS1 alternatives

We use FTP RMTCMD facility along with a predefined job in IJS (Advanced Job
Scheduler) to do this very thing.

The user FTPs a file to the ISeries, followed up with a FTP RMTCMD command
that submits a job defined in the scheduler. The user profile the FTP runs
under only has authority to place the FTP data in a public directory along
with just enough authority to request that the predefined IJS job run. The
IJS job is defined to run under a user profile with additional authority so
it can copy this data into a production area and dependencies are set up to
start an entire posting process to start.

It works for us....

It almost sounds like this can do the problem "If my customer ftp's a file
into my ifs I want to process it" problem that appears on a somewhat
frequent basis.  Am I correct?
