Scheduler Usage

Posted: **29 Jul 2014 4:12**

Hello

I am trying to run this from an OS job type:

ctmvar -action set -var "%%\myvar" -varexpr "abc123"

but the job fails and the sysout shows:

Code: Select all

+ ctmvar -action set -var 'CTMERR\myvar' -varexpr abc123
Output:
Var name 'CTMERR\myvar' in -VAR invalid: it must begin with %%
usage: ctmvar
  -ACTION                <LOAD|SET|DELETE|LIST>
  [ -VAR                   <Variable> ]
  [ -VAREXPR               <Variable Expression> ]
  [ -FILENAME              <Filename> ]
  [ -QUIET ]
  [ -DEBUG                 <debug level> ]


Result:    Failure.

What am I doing wrong?

In addition, the "abc123" is actually the result from piped grep and cut statements

Hi

As you can see

ctmvar -action set -var 'CTMERR\myvar' -varexpr abc123

CTMERR is because your variable is unresolved.
