Using the Remote Subsystem from a Batch Job 

While in a batch job, you can establish a remote session by using the
DSLINE or REMOTE HELLO command.  The job streamed may be similar to the
following (local and remote prompts are shown for clarity):

          :JOB USER.ACCOUNT
          :DSLINE REMOTE2
          :REMOTE HELLO RUSER.RACCOUNT
          :REMOTE
          #FILE OUT;DEV=LP
          #BUILD WORK;DISC=50
          #RUN USERPROG
          #PURGE WORK
          #:
          :REMOTE BYE
          :DSLINE;CLOSE
          :EOJ


NOTE  The remote # prompt is optional.  It allows you to more easily
      identify remote commands in a job stream.


Remember that once a remote session has been established, it interacts
with the job in the same way as it would interact with a terminal.  If
the remote session detects an error, the error will be printed to
$STDLIST. If the error generates a user prompt,the next record in the job
file is read as the response (in the same manner as waiting for a
character or Return on a terminal).  That record is then lost to the job.
