Re: Ending 'qsh' session programmatically

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In batch the session runs, then ends. Anything that went to the screen goes 
to a spooled file (QPRINT on our system). There are usually 2 joblogs, as 
well - QP0ZSPWP & QZSHSH. When I do this interactively I get a message to 
press ENTER to continue, not F3.

Are you doing things that do not require a display to the user? Then I 
suggest, in your CL, using

SBMJOB CMD('qsh cmd(''' *cat &cmdstring *cat ''')')

I'm not completely sure of the double apostrophes - try it out.

You can set an environment variable, in order to get the job names.

ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_CHILD_JOB_SNDINQMSG) VALUE(2)

sends inquiry messages with the qualified job name - you can get the job 
name, then respond with 'G' to keep going. This'd require 2 RCVMSG commands.

Another environment variable

ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT) VALUE(NONE)

suppresses output. (new in V5R2)

You could DLTSPLF to get rid of the joblogs.
