Issue/Introduction

When running a job that performs a 'sendevent' command, following error is found back :

/opt/CA/WAAE_11.3.6/SystemAgent/WA_AGENT/spool/ACE_SCH/MAIN/WAAE_WF0.1/113.25_1.8CA26E853423B55E91CDB16D0380E7E8DB8C8829.sh: line 2: sendevent: command not found

 

We are trying to set 'sendevent' before we run our daily jobs. Below is the 'sendevent' command we are trying to run.

#!/bin/sh
sendevent -E SET_GLOBAL -G "GDPDATE=`date "+%y%m%d"`"
