[sqr-users] Executing UNIX shell scripts from inside an SQR program

[John Czekaj <jrc4adp@yahoo.com>]

I have a client who is attempting to invoke a UNIX shell script from inside an 
SQR.  Sometimes these shell scripts copy files into archive directories and 
send emails.  Other times there are other UNIX commands being executed.  They 
are having two issues:
 
(1) The SQRs they are being initiated via the Process Scheduler (ADP Enterprise 
Version 4C running on a Sun box using Solaris 9).  When the shell scripts are 
run, any output that goes to STDOUT is going into the Process Scheduler log 
file instead of the initiating SQR's log file, which is what used to happen 
when they were running SQR V3.  They are now running SQR V8.1
 
(2) Apparently, the shell scripts themselves cannot be more than 200 lines 
long.  If they are longer, they just quit at the point of the 200th line.
 
Is there a way to redirect STDOUT to write to the initiating SQR log file 
instead of the Process Scheduler log file?  Is there some environment setting 
that controls the size of a command file that is executed by a CALL SYSTEM 
command?
 
If anyone has any insight on these issues and/or workarounds, I would 
appreciate the information.  Thanks in advance for your help.
