When you enter a command from ishell it creates a new shell, runs the command, and then goes back to your original shell. Changing the current directory by issuing a command on the command line has no effect on the current shell environment.

If I use a 'cd' command from ishell, it appears to have no effect. I don't get any message at all, but a subsequent 'pwd' still shows root (which is specified in my RACF OMVS segment as HOME). But if I issue a 'cd' command from TSO OMVS, it works. I've done several searches and looked at several manuals, but I can't find what is causing this behavior. Any insight is greatly appreciated.
