Hi all,

If I want to execute multiple commands on the Before or the After job routines, for example if I want to execute 2 commands in the before job routine like 'delete a file from a directory' and also cat 2 or 3 files to make a single file, how can I do this.

thanks guyz

Build a small script for that and fire that script from the before/after job subroutine section using ExecSh

Thanks a lot, but I am not allowed to write my own scripts without the prior approval, so i am trying to find a way to execute multiple commands from the job parameters.

Then put a semi-colon between the commands.

Learn about operating system pipelining. In summary:
command2 is executed unconditionally after command1 finishes
command2 is executed only if command1 finishes successfully (with an exit status of 0)
command2 is executed only if command1 finishes unsuccessfully (with an exit status of other than 0)
