RE: Is CODE going to help me?

(Sorry, if this comes through twice.  I was having email troubles and
re-subscribed under another email address.)

Can anyone answer this?

For the distributed debugger, if the job, QSYSJOBD, with a status of
PGM-Q5BROUTE, is running.  When a connection is made to it is that when
the job Q5BWHSRV is started?

Or will Q5BWHSRV already be there (prior to connection) if the debug
server is started properly?

Thanks

Morgan
