Re: Batch/interactive interaction

Try using a data queue.  After the SBMJOB have the interactive program wait on a
data queue.  The batch job can send a completion message message when done.

Depending on the time the batch job takes, you could even send progress status
and have that shown to the user so they know how long to wait.
