Once you have started with PIPELINES as your driving mechanism, why not stay with it. Try feeding multiple commands into a CP stage and the output from that into your CONSOLE stage instead of calling another EXEC. PIPELINES also has a stage for driving a 3270 screen that you might look at. I haven't used it myself, I tend to use the free IOS3270 program to display data on a 3270 screen.
You might want to take this discussion to the VMESA-L list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to get other VMers input as to what to display and then how to display it. /Thomas Kern /301-903-2211 > -----Original Message----- > From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Mike Caughran > Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 19:03 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Dirt Simple Monitor > > > I have been playing around trying to make a simple > monitor like top for vm.
