We use a couple ways. The rich man's way is to use a job scheduler with agents
that can run on Linux and be notified.
The poor man's way is to use SSH between z/OS and Linux. In one case I have a
batch job that runs on the mainframe that puts a file on an NFS mount to Linux
in step #1. Then in step #2 it runs a script via USS that SSH'es to Linux and
executes a script on the remote server to do something with that file (SFTP's
it). When done with that step #3 in the JCL then does something with the file
back on z/OS.
before ssh was invented, I sent mail. One needs to consider the
possibility of forged mail and the trustworthiness of its content.
http to a webserver could do it too.
Or a crontab entry to run something every so often. Run often enough to
avoid excessive latency, infrequently enough to cause performance problems.
[ -f /some/place/somefile ] && rm -f /some/place/somefile
There are also rexec and rsh.
