I saw some other ideas, but I wonder if Carsten’s RUNJOBCD

would be a viable option.

For this type of thing, if it would have to happen often, I would look to having the job check a dtaara or usrspc for a particular value and do an orderly shutdown or reclaim the activation group.

I have a web service running in a named activation group in a CGI server job. The activation group stays around between calls to improve performance. When doing development, I need to end the activation group so the program will shut down in order for it to pick up any program changes I made. I could specify activation group *NEW when I'm doing development, but I wouldn't want to do that in production. So, my idea was to run a RCLACTGRP command in the server job from my interactive job. I know there is a way to do that, but I can't remember how. I tried some searching on the web, but I didn't have much luck. Anyone remember how to run a command in another job that is active?
