Hi all,
Came up with a scenario where we need to execute some commands of command prompt from batch,ie, instead of going to the command prompt(option 6) and typing the command, we want to execute those commands from jcl.Is there any utility or any way this can be achieved .
We have all the commands in a ps file. We need to read each record and execute it and if possible capture the log of the executed command.Could you please suggest!

What?
Like running a TSO batch job having its SYSTSIN pointing to the commands file ?
That's easy, you only need to run a TSO batch job having its SYSTSIN pointing to the commands file!

Yes..I am not aware of it . could you provide any sample jcl or reference.
This is what i want to do: Suppose my file have these commands:
Code:

REMOVE  I1612XX GROUP(MYGROUP) OWNER(MYGROUP)               
REMOVE  I171    GROUP(MYGROUP) OWNER(MYGROUP)               
CONNECT I151    GROUP(MYGROUP) OWNER(MYGROUP) AUTHORITY(USE)
CONNECT I151    GROUP(MYGROUP) OWNER(MYGROUP) AUTHORITY(USE)

So, i want to execute these from batch, instead of going onto option 6 and executing REMOVE I1612XX GROUP(MYGROUP) OWNER(MYGROUP) and so on..
Any sample job would be of great help! Thanks in advance

See the Running terminal sessions as batch jobs chapter in the TSO/E General Information manual for your z/OS release for more information.
