Long story short, the log pulling is initiated from a Unix box over SSH to a VMS box, which asks the nodes to export the logs and then copy them over.
Once this is complete, the Unix box SCPs the exported logs over.
This way I am sure the log export has finished before initiating the SCP.

I am aware of this - I am using this to pull some logs from a couple of boxes to another, all VMS.

Ok. Note, however, that the solution you came up with now is not really generally usable in DECnet, but is rather VMS-specific. But on the other hand, more or less any solution will be rather specific...

Guys,
I remember there's a clean / elegant way of telling another node to run a DCL script for me, but have totally forgotten how to do it.
Basically, I have three nodes, A, B and C.
I've set up proxies for user FOO across all of them.
Now I want node A (as user FOO) to be able to tell node B and C to run a script on them, as user FOO.
How do I do this?
I notice that you figured out one way, which is to use network communication to a named task.
Another is to submit a batch job on another node. A third is (I seem to remember) the ability to just request a program to be run on a remote node, but that might some RSX specific thing. I can check in manuals if you want to know more, as my memory is fuzzy on the specifics.

And just answered my own question: The permissions on KUHAVX::SYS$MANAGER:TELL.COM were wrong, it needed W:RE.

-RMS-E-ACC, ACP file access failed
-SYSTEM-F-NOSUCHOBJ, network object is unknown at remote node
Any ideas gents?

Pah. Trolls. If you think I'll be bothered by them you haven't seen me playing Skyrim, clearly ;)

Hello!
They aren't going after you. They are going into a different area, One
team did. Something about hunting for clumsy people who use older
methods of transportation.
