Ok, stop SHOUTING. We hear you fine.
Yes, Sequencer Jobs can be run from the Director just like any other jobs.
No, normally no 'shell script' is required to run any kind of jobs, but you'll find that you will need one if you want a third party / Enterprise scheduling tool (like Control-M) to run the jobs. The script is basically a 'wrapper' around the dsjob command which is something you can read about in the Server Job Developer's Guide manual in the Command Line Interface chapter. Of course, searching the forum will turn up a wealth of information on the subject.
Again, no you don't need scripts to run 4 sequences. A Sequencer job is perfectly happy running regular jobs *or* Sequencer jobs. So, all you need is a fifth Sequencer to run your other four.
For an example wrapper script, search the forum for posts which mention 'dsjob' from a certain author by the name of kcbland. You'll find a rather... thorough... example he posted.![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

The thing to remember here is that a job sequence is just a special case of a server job.
The only thing special about it is that it consists of (read-only) job control code generated by precompiling its design.
