Re: Start SSHD server with Debug

Art,

Not sure if this is what you mean - set this environment variables before
calling QSH
The log file has details of QSH execution

/* write log file */
             ADDENVVAR  ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT) +
                          VALUE('FILE=/postal/log/sftplog.txt') +
                          REPLACE(*YES)
/* tell QSH to end with a QSH msg id if an error */

             ADDENVVAR  ENVVAR(QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG) VALUE(Y) +
                          REPLACE(*YES)

             QSH        CMD(&CMD)
             MONMSG     MSGID(QSH0000) EXEC(DO)
             SNDMSG     MSG('QSH failed! See +
                          /postal/log/sftplog.txt') TOUSR(XYZ)
             GOTO       CMDLBL($ERROR)
             ENDDO
