Christian,

Here's another way of invoking the same ADSM admin session via batch....

//ST030    EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=255
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//DSCLANG  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS1.ADSM.ANSMSG(ANSMENU)
//DSCOPT   DD DISP=SHR,DSN=ADSM.ADSM.TSOADMIN.OPTIONS(OPTTCP)
//SYSTSIN  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=ADSM.ADMIN.LOGIN(LOGONB)
//         DD *
Q OCC SU5221 >> 'TEST1.ADSM.OCCUP.D970401'
//*

The LOGONB member in ADSM.ADMIN.LOGIN contains....

DSMADMC -ID=xxxxxx -PASSWORD=xxxxxx  -


Using this method allows you to secure the PDS that contains the ADSM
admin id and password.  Note - it's a good idea to have an IEFBR14 step
prior to this step to preallocate the TEST1.ADSM.OCCUP.D970401 dataset -
otherwise you'll end up with the default allocation attributes for ADSM
files (RECFM=VB,LRECL=1028,BLKSIZE=6144) - not very useful if you want
to edit the file afterwards.

For batch queries such as this, the other option would be to set up an
ADSM administrative account and grant it the minimum authorization
required.  I think most ADSM Query commands require minimum privileges
(i.e. Operator or Analyst).
