MessageCan you pass the commands to MPUX as if it was an external procedure?

  Subject: Migrating to Windows


  Here is another migration question concerning HP3000 (928 / Rel C.60.00)
running PowerHouse Rel 8.39.C to a Windows server (XP) running PC Powerhouse
8.43D.

  We started to investigate MPUX - a service that runs on the Windows Server
that can emulate the HP in regards to job scheduling,
  spooler functionality, SORT and FCOPY utilities. This was primarily due to
not wanting to rewrite our HP jobs to some other scripting language. Also it
would be nice to train our crew gradually to a new OS by carrying over some
of the functionality that the HP has in regards to 'debugging' jobs via
stdlists.

  Does anyone know how to make MPUX communicate with Powerhouse. We had
hoped that since MPUX has been around for a few years and with the
announcement about the 3000 disappearing, that there would be some 'linkage'
between Powerhouse and MPUX. We were hoping that MPUX would be able to
'intercept'  a command coming out of Powerhouse -- if the command was
something that MPUX could emulate (ie. STREAM, LISTF, SORT.......) then MPUX
would do its thing else it would just ignore it and leave it for the OS to
take care of.

  Does Cognos have any plans to 'link' with MPUX somehow to make the
migration from the HP to a Windows platform a little easier?

  Does anyone know how to one could 'link' these two programs so they can
communicate?

  This is not a long term permanent solution but it would ease the pain
slightly if we do not get hit all at once by having to rewrite all our HP
scripts. The HP has some great features and it would be nice to keep some of
its ease of use.

  Thanks for your response in advance.

  Roger
