YOU ARE STANDING AT THE END OF A ROAD BEFORE A SMALL BRICK BUILDING. AROUND YOU IS A FOREST. A SMALL STREAM FLOWS OUT OF THE BUILDING AND DOWN A GULLY.

Peter,
Yes, I have tried addressing Netview, as well as MVS and TSO just to try things. But addressing NETVIEW doesn't appear to work the same from IRXJCL as when I address MVS and use an MVS command.
There are plenty of times when I want to run a JCL that calls a REXX using IRXJCL. As far as I can tell REXX is much easier to pick apart, parse and interrogate a dsn over JCL (not even sure if JCL can do this). When that JCL has to be on a schedule, it's much more to convenient to have the JCL call the REXX, rather than have the REXX on an approximate timer pop, then have it go out and look to see of the JCL finished properly, then execute the REXX.

dkoppit,
IRXJCL is part of TSO/E which is part of MVS, so you can change to TSO, MVS and ISPF. In my automation days i remember vaguely that running pure NCCF commands (like PIPE) is not possible in MVS (IRXJCL).
So in that case I always used a timer (and yes thats also a kind of scheduling) to run things under NETVIEW. Beside that i agree that PIPE is
a nice command but not all MVS/NETVIEW commands are traped by PIPE.
So you end up with a mix of PIPES and/or TRAP rexx routines. |

Oops, i forgot about the TWS/Netview interface to run netview commands
in batch, cause i never used that.
The following manual will give you the info how to use the EVJRYCMD
command in your IKJEFT01 jcl/procedure :
