Cluster job SYNCHRONIZE?

» close window

The Question is:

 
We have a two node cluster.  I am trying to submit a job (child) from one node
 another.  The job (child) that needs to run on the remote node aquires
 required logicals from a user defined on that node and the logicals are
 independent from one that is subm
itting the job (different Oracle instance and different layered product).  When
 I remote submit the parent job should wait for the completion of the the child
 job.  However, when I try to SYNCHRONIZE parent and child jobs the parent job
 no longer recogniz
es the child job's queue.  SYNCHRONIZE works if the child job has no user
 specified in SUBMIT.
 
-- The following does not SYNCHRONIZE but inherits the logicals for user test
 and finishes the tasks
 
$SUBMIT/NAME=HOPPER/USER=TEST/QUE=NODE2$BATCH /NOTIFY xyz.com
 
-- The following SYNCHRONIZES but without inheriting required logicals of user
 test
 
$SUBMIT/NAME=HOPPER/QUE=NODE2$BATCH /NOTIFY xyz.com
 
Is this a security limitation for jobs submitted accross nodes.  Is there a way
 around it?
 
Thanks.
 

The Answer is :

 
  Try using DCL DECnet task-to-task?
 
  Try using SYNCHRONIZE /ENTRY?
