Hello,

Can anyone please help me?

I need an utility (REXX or whatever else)
that I can use in BATCH to pass MVS display commands + retreive the result from these commands in the SYSOUT of the JOB.
So far I found many ways and utilities to issue MVS commands in batch.
But only two that retrieves the output from those commands was SDSF and IOF batch solution. SDSF I can not use because the system that I need to use it on does not have SDSF but CA SYSVIEW instead. IOF is some output manager that needs licensing...Maybe rexx console interface but I do not exactly know how to use it. Does anyone here have similar utility or REXX program that they would like to share with the world? Smile

Thank you all in advance

batsaali,

I was never a systems programmer, so I may be way off here, but if MVS Console commands work the same way as CICS commands then you can try the following methods listed here
