Correction, I should have said ACTION=COMMAND, not TYPE=COMMAND.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.

Kent, yes, in general you can do things with TYPE=COMMAND events to start
concurrent operations that run in the background. Note, however, that
tracking their success or failure through the TSM scheduler becomes
problematic since the background processes are effectively detached. The
specific issues involved would depend on the specifics of the problem you
are trying to solve.
