Scheduling cron jobs is done by editing the crontab file. See 'man cron' for details. It is unrelated to batchcom.

I had the same thought, but then it occurred to me that maybe the OP is trying to use BATCHCOM instead of cron so all jobs are managed from a single Guardian location. I would try something like this:

osh -c "<program name> [-p1 param1] [-p2 param2] [etc.]"

If you want output you may want to look into running an OSSTTY process.

We had some OSS batches running unter control of NetBatch. To get the thing running was a bit tricky, finally we had the following solution, the example shows a pax execution as part of a TACL macro:

osh /jobid 0,term $zhome/-osstty -c "pax -w -v -f /G/[:used_disk]/mydir/conf /mydir/conf 2>/G/[:used_disk]/mydir/cnflist" >/listout

The really important things are the parameter jobid and the -osstty, without these parameters it did not work.

Thank you everyone. I have scheduled the job with crontab.
