Re: Server Jobs

One question (sorry this is late but just got back from vacation) -- how
far apart are your commands?  Each AS400 object represents a connection to
a single server job.  As long as the connection stays up all commands will
be handled by the same job.  So, a set of commands run through the same
AS400 object will run in the same job as long as the connection does not
drop between commands.  Using the same AS400 object may not be practical if
there is a lot of time between commands, but it should work for commands
that are close (especially of the connection is reliable).

Group,

I have a Java program that needs a
specialized environment to run several
CL commands. If I use the CommandCall
class, I get a new job for each
command. I could submit my own server
that processes these commands and then
end it when I am done, but this seems
like it would be such a common task, I
thought I would check to see if I
missed it in the toolbox or if anyone
else has tackled this.

The command call class works very well
for what I am doing except that I
cannot reconnect to the same server.
One solution I am thinking about is a
submitting a job that sits on a data
queue waiting for commands and returning
messages and completion status of each
command.

Thanks,

David Morris
