T — Send a Command to Another BDT Node (Requires File-to-File Feature)

Purpose

Use this command to direct a BDT command from one file-to-file node to another file-to-file node.

Format


>>-prefix--+-SEND-+--,node-name,bdt-command--------------------><
           '-T----'

prefix: is the prefix that is appropriate for your console or terminal. Do not use a prefix when submitting commands in a batch job.
node-name: is the name of the file-to-file node to which you want to send the command.
bdt-command: is the BDT command you want to send.

Usage Notes

You cannot use the SEND command to send another SEND command. You can use it to send any other BDT command, including the JES command.
If a session terminates before the SEND command is processed, the command will not execute and will be discarded. When this happens there is no notification from the system.

Result

You will receive any responses at your console.
