We are talking build-time here, so you are supposed to have a shell available. If you want a bit more elegance, you can omit the echo and redirect stdin to the script

softIoc < st-dbl-only.cmd

Using input redirection will quit the IOC because stdin is closed when it reaches end of file. You don't even need the exit command at the end.

Best,
