Greetings, I have some software installed on a Solaris 10 machine that I am trying to start with a STAX job. In order to start the software you are required to source a profile script first to setup the environment. root# . /path/to/application/profileroot# appControl startServer My first thought was to just build the environment by hand using the ENV parameter of PROCESS START however I cannot depend on the environmental variables always being the same. Also I would prefer to keep the logic of building the environment in the shell script the application ships with. I thought perhaps I could use a static handle to tie the processes together, such as: C:\> STAF solarisMachine PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND . PARMS /path/to/application/profile STATICHANDLENAME appEnvironment Response-----------393 C:\> STAF solarisMachine PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND appControl PARMS startServer ENV STAF_STATIC_HANDLE=393 WAIT RETURNSTDERR Response--------{ Return Code: 1 Key : <None> Files : [ { Return Code: 0 Data : sh: appControl: not found } ]}
I can tell the environmental variables did not persist between processes as the PATH appears to be incomplete. This leads me to believe I am misunderstanding the concept of static handles. Any thoughts on how I could solve this problem? - Ryan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.
