Re: Is it possible to start VM/CE unattended?
|
Hello,?
Thank you for your response.? I just looked, and 009 is a 3215 in DMKRIO (RDEVICE is 004,7 and set to 3215).
I'm not following your thught as this need to be an unattended solution.
I thought Hercules could run REXX programs, but can a REXX program "see" the output on the OS it is running and programmatically respond?

? Hello,
I am looking for a method (Rexx script in Hercules?) to start VM/CE in an unattended mode. Unfirtunately, Windows will restart on its own not respecting that Hercules and VM/CE are runnung.
The situation is I am making my system available to friends around the world, They will be using WC3270 (or similar) to connect and log into their account(s) on my VM/CE system.
The problem is Windows restarts without giving Hercules and its operating systems a chance to shutdown properly. I don't want to have my friends waiting till I come and type in the spool file disposition (e.g., CKPT, COLD, FORCE,etc.).
I'm wondering is it possible to have REXX in Hercules handle this situation? (Look at VM's message and input a response till VM starts.) If yes, how?
Thank you,
