Hi,

This is most likely a communication problem, where the remote machine 
running the process cannot communicate back to the STAX service machine to 
notify it that the process has completed.  Note that when you run a 
<process> in a STAX job, the process is started asynchronously, while your 
STAF atlantis10.in.ibm.com PROCESS START request is running synchronously.

The following forum thread describes the communication problem and ways to 
debug it::

[staf-users] STAX <process> hangs



Hello,

I'm trying to run the following <process> element but it hangs:

<script>
target = 'atlantis10.in.ibm.com'
command = '/opt/IBM/db2/V9.7_IVT/bin/db2ilist'
</script>
<message log='1' level='"trace"'>
'staf %s PROCESS Start Shell Command %s Wait SameConsole ReturnStdOut 
ReturnStdErr' % \
( target, command )
</message>
<process>
<location>target</location>
<command mode='"shell"'>command</command>
<console use='"same"'/>
<returnstdout/>
</process>
<message>
'Process element completed!'
</message>

Note that its equivalent STAF command below runs successfully:
C:\>staf atlantis10.in.ibm.com PROCESS Start Shell Command 
/opt/IBM/db2/V9.7_IVT/bin/db2ilist Wait SameConsole ReturnStdOut 
ReturnStdErr
{
  Return Code: 0
  Key        : <None>
  Files      : [
    {
      Return Code: 0
      Data       : kavyarao
nsequtf
venkat
abaky
nseqlee

    }
    {
      Return Code: 0
      Data       :
    }
  ]
}

I don't see errors in the JVM log. What can be the problem?

Thanks
