RE : RE : Savsys in batch

["ISeries" <iseries@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks thomas for the tip.

I know this way (with data queue).
But you need to run the waiting pgm ONLINE on console, it cannot be batch.
And this is my problem.(restricted state)
Brms can run savsys batched.
I don't know how.
May be Leif knows.

I have never needed to try this, but one possibility comes to mind.

1. CRTMSGQ  qgpl/opsavsys

2. Set authorities so that only restricted profiles can send messages to or 
receive messages from qgpl/opsavsys.

3. Write a break-message handling program to receive messages from 
qgpl/opsavsys. The program can either take the message text and pass it 
directly into QCAPCMD or QCMDEXC or interpret the message text or message ID 
and decide how to start a SAVSYS. The program should be compiled *OWNER and 
have enough authority or call another program that does.

4. CLRMSGQ  qgpl/opsavsys
** You probably should always clear this *msgq before assigning the 
break-handler.

5. CHGMSGQ  qgpl/opsavsys dlvry(*break) pgm(mylib/mybrkpgm *noalwrpy)
** The CHGMSGQ command must be run at the console so that the break-handling 
program runs at the console. You can put the CLRMSGQ and CHGMSGQ commands into 
a CL program.

6. Add a job scheduler entry to run a "SNDMSG 'SAVSYS' tomsgq(opsavsys)" 
command at the desired time. Send whatever message or message text that the 
break-handler is looking for. The entry should run under a profile that has 
authority.

The break-handler should be smart enough to make sure that going to restricted 
state isn't going to disrupt whatever might be running at the time. Your guess 
is as good as mine on how to do that. Of course, after restricted state and the 
SAVSYS, STRSBS is needed for the controlling subsystem.

Numerous details are missing, but it's reasonable.

I'd test this out, but it's not something that's done on a whim. I suspect 
someone's done this somewhere.

Good luck.
