You need to use the proper syntax for the STAF command executable.  The 
STAF command executable expects 3 arguments:  <machine> <service> 
<request>

You forgot to specify the <machine> argument, so it thinks "execute" is 
the machine's host name, thus you see the error message that says "Unknown 
host name: execute".
You also forgot to specify the service name: STAX.   Also, you probably 
don't want to specify ./ preceding the xml file name because the command 
will be executed in the environment that STAFProc is running in (where the 
current directory is whatever directory STAFProc was run from), not the 
command prompt environment.

You need to specify something like:

STAF staxMachine STAX EXECUTE FILE /tests/jobTimer.xml FUNCTION 
rebootTarget

[staf-users] STAF Execute command failed






Dear list:
function "rebootTarget" have no arguments. I try to run this function like 
this, but failed all the times. Why? How to make it right?

-bash-3.2$ staf execute file ./jobTimer.xml function rebootTarget
Error submitting request, RC: 16
Additional info
---------------
STAFConnectionProviderConnect: Error resolving host name: Unknown host 
name: execute, gethostbyname_r(): 22, Endpoint: tcp://execute
