Hello,
is there any way to pipe use the output of one command as an input of
another? For example if I want to cancel a running space reclamation
of a
certain storagepool. So I first have to get the process number and
cancel
this process. What I'm looking for is something like this:
select process_num from processes where process='Space Reclamation'
and
status like '%TAPE_FILESYSTEM%' | cancel process
Obviously this doesn't work, but is there another way to get this
done?
the best solution I found is by building a server script that does the
select for the process id and with some sql crafting generate the
command to run. I normally just copy&paste (since these are mainly one-
off jobs), but I think you can redirect the output of the select to a
file and then call that file as a macro from within the same server
script that generated the macro in the first place.
kind regards,
Stephan
