I am trying to invoke a scripting utility called wsadmin on ibm-iseries.

Steps below to invoke the scripting client on I-series through IBM-I command line utility

1. login through the ibm-command line client

2. Start the QSHELL using the command STRQSH

3. Navigate to the folder where my scripting utility (wsadmin) is present and ran

4. wsadmin -lang jython

5. The output is as below

The java.version property was detected as input. This property is used as out
put only and has no effect on JVM initialization.
WASX7209I: Connected to process "dmgr" on node BoxManager using SOAP connec
tor; The type of process is: DeploymentManager
WASX7031I: For help, enter: "print Help.help()"
wsadmin>

6. I get the wsadmin prompt successfully which is what I am looking for.

=============================================================================

I wanted to invoke the same utility on the IBM-I series from a windows machine

Now I installed cygwin on a windows machine and set up a ssh tunnel to IBM-I series machine mentioned above ...so I could run the wsadmin utility on IBM-I series from cygwin.

====================================================================================

Verified the ssh tunnel by logging in using the command

ssh user@ibm-i and I was able to login to the IBM-I series machine

======================================================================================
I navigated to the path where wsadmin is present and ran the same command

wsadmin -lang jython and I got the error

wsadmin : syntax error at line 12: '(' unexpected

============================================================================================

My question : Is there some settings that needs to be done to run Q-SHELL COMMANDS on cygwin ?

rbash

RBASH(1)						      General Commands Manual							  RBASH(1)

NAME

       rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1)

RESTRICTED SHELL

       If  bash  is  started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted.  A restricted shell is
       used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell.  It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the  follow-
       ing are disallowed or not performed:

       o      changing directories with cd

       o      setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV

       o      specifying command names containing /

       o      specifying a filename containing a / as an argument to the .  builtin command

       o      specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command

       o      importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup

       o      parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup

       o      redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators

       o      using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command

       o      adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command

       o      using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins

       o      specifying the -p option to the command builtin command

       o      turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted.

       These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.

       When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script.
