Can someone tell me the best way to run a piece of JCL on IBM zOS from a Java web app on a different server (Windows). I also need get a response code back from the job.
The 2 options at the moment are: 1) Using JES - But its hard to get the response back 2) Make a call through a DB2 procedure.
Is there another (better) way
I"m not sure if this will help, but while I was looking for information about how to use FTP on z/OS to transfer files I saw the following article from IBM.

Hope you find it helpful.
