Hello all,

I'm troubleshooting a monitoring job that executes numerous command files
and is then supposed to check the results of variables that the command
files set before they died.  The problem I am running into is that the job
does not see the variables that are being set by the command files.  I can
run the command file and after it dies I can still see the variables that it
sets.  Why would it be different with a job?  As I understand it, in Unix a
parent process has to export a variable for its child process's to see it.
Could it be that I am running into something similar (in reverse).

Thanx in advance.
