Triggering Jobs from DOS

Hi,

Our project is in SIT phase right now and we need to process daily files for a month. So to manually run the file one by one for each and every day, we thought of creating a batch script in DOS which will invoke the Control M jobs according to dependencies.

If any one of you come across this situation already, Can u please help us.

We are very new to control M and we need a script which will invoke/run the control M jobs

Regards
Anand

Think inside the product. If you have Control-M jobs already defined, why can't someone kick off a job using Control-M GUI? If your DOS script is to do something then kick off a Control-M job, why don't you get Control-M to kick off the script which does what it need to do, and a dependency to the Control-M job in question.

Think inside Control-M. You have a power tool in your hand.

Since we have to run the process for nearly two month data one by one, i need to put a resource to run the job. Since there are so many other jobs from other projects are also running, we are having control M resource issue as well. So that why We were thinking is there is a way we can invoke the control M job through automation, so that i will not put a resource who has to sit 24/7 to complete the job.

Thanks for your response.
