Re: Submit SSH Command to submit remote command with Parameters






Hiya Andrew,

I would add the -n switch to the ssh command. That tells it not to
attempt to get input from stdin (which, in your example, would be the
keyboard -- and that might cause problems in batch!)

I would also add (at a minimum) the QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT environment
variable to tell QShell to write the output to a log file instead of the
user's screen. and the QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG to help you detect errors.

PGM
DCL VAR(&CMD) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(1000)

ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG) VALUE(Y) +
REPLACE(*YES)

ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT) +
VALUE('FILE=/tmp/sshcmd.log') +
REPLACE(*YES)

CHGVAR VAR(&CMD) VALUE('ssh -T SFTPTST@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx +
''system "sbmjob cmd(CALL PGM(QGPL/XXXXXXX) +
parm(''DANNYT'' ''Joe.Blogs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx'')) +
job(SRVDPRF) HOLD(*YES) JOBQ(QBATCH) "''')

QSH CMD(&CMD)
MONMSG MSGID(QSH0000) EXEC(DO)
SNDMSG MSG('Command failed! See /tmp/sshcmd.log') +
TOUSR(*REQUESTER)
ENDDO

ENDPGM

-then-

SBMJOB CMD(CALL THE-ABOVE-PGM) JOB(SRVDPRF) JOBQ(QBATCH)

Hello,

I trying to submit a job on the iSeries to submit a remote command on

the

target iSeries passing in parameters but I am hitting a brick wall :-(

My CL does this

QSH CMD(&COMAND) and the parameter&COMAND is this

ssh -T SFTPTST@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 'system "sbmjob cmd(CALL PGM(QGPL/XXXXXXX)
parm('DANNYT' 'Joe.Blogs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx')) job(SRVDPRF) HOLD(*YES)
JOBQ(QBATCH) " '

This works fine and submits the job on the target machine....but I have

to

press enter on my machine to close the terminal session. So I tried to
submit the job on my machine so it could run in batch

CALL PGM(QCMDEXC) PARM(&COMAND&LENGTH)

but this time&COMAND looks like this

SBMJOB CMD(QSH CMD ('/QOpenSys/bin/ssh -T SFTPTST@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 'system
"sbmjob cmd(CALL PGM(QGPL/XXXXXXX) parm('DANNYT'
'Joe.Blogs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx')) job(SRVDPRF) HOLD(*YES) JOBQ(QBATCH) " ''))
job(SRVDPRF) HOLD(*YES) JOBQ(QBATCH)

But I cannot get this to work......can anyone help please.....I've

pulled

out to much hair on this already :-(

Thankyou

Regards
Andy
