QUESTION POSED ON: 16 September 2008
I know how to run a Windows command from an iSeries using RUNRMTCMD. I am working on something that requires a job to run on the iSeries after a file has been transferred. Is there a way that a Windows PC can call a program on the iSeries?

There are two options:

  • If iSeries Access is installed on the PC you have a command called RMTCMD that allows you to send commands to the iSeries.
  • On any Windows (even when iSeries Access is not installed) there is a tool called REXEC, which allows submit commands to the iSeries server.
Note:
  • Both tools are used to submit "batch commands" with no screen involved.
  • Both tools require start of server on the AS/400. (STRHOSTSVR *RMTCMD or STRTCPSVR *REXEC.)
