Hi all
I’m try to run via CLP in batch, a sftp script (that use Expect tool), and then invoke it with STRQSH CMD(&CMD) …
In the log file i find “fork: Error 3489 occurred. ”
The batch CLP, is submitted a jobq that can execute max 6 jobs and the SubSystem also can execute max 6 jobs ; in this moment under this subsystem are running 3 jobs.
Which could be the problem ?
Thanks in advance
Gio

One thing to get you further is to understand what error 3489 is. You can use the DSPMSGD command, just put CPE ahead of the code, that will give you the message ID - in this case, CPE3489.

I'm not at a system now, so I can't do it - give it a try. And this applies to any of those IFS codes in the 3,000's
