Sample Script

The supplied script uses mailx(1) to notify the named user logins.

The following is the xcomntfy script:

#!/bin/sh
# @(#)xcomntfy.sh    1.2    3/28/92 08:42:41
#   This procedure (xcomntfy) is called by CA XCOM Data Transport
#   transaction program when the NOTIFY parameter is set to YES.
#
#   The arguments passed to the xcomntfy procedure are:
#
#   -q q_entryname
#
#   -h how
#
#   The following $how will be treated as 'M' (mail to user) by default:
#       T - TSO;
#       R - ROSCOE;
#       C - CICS;
#       L - another LU;
#       M - mail to user.
#   The following $how will be treated as 'W' (write to user) by default:
#       W - write to user.
#   The following $how will be treated as 'A' (write to all users) by 
#   default:
#       A - all;
#
#   -u login
#
#   Note: 1.Other information about the transfer can be extracted
#       from the output of xcomqm -D$q_entryname command
#       for postprocessing
#         2.If specified in $how method fails, the mail message will be 
#       sent to $LOGNAME or root.
