Hi All,

I was going through job properties and in before/after subroutine some options are..

ExecSh
ExecSHClient
ExecTCL

ExexSh is to execute shell commands..and coming to other two options can any one explain me when they are used...

Thank you

You probably saw ExecSHSilent rather than 'Client' and that just suppresses log messages. ExecTCL let's you execute Universe / TCL queries, typically against the repository.

You can run any valid script or UNIX command as long as it is in your PATH or properly pathed. Not sure what's up with your leading "dot", that's certainly not needed, though.

The dot can matter, as a reading of the man page for source will reveal.

Of course, it can matter but not in this specific case.
