QSH JAR Command Limit

I have a process set up to compress files in the IFS in order to FTP to
an external company.  This process currently runs 12 times a month.  We
are changing the process to only run once a month (which is a better
overall solution).  The only problem is in preliminary testing, the JAR
command used to compress the files now returns the following message
when attempting to compress the files.

$
jar cfM /stmimagp/pdsimages.zip/ stmimagp/*.*
qsh: 001-0085 Too many arguments specified on command.
$

The folder contains 95000+ files to compress.  Any thoughts on how I can
bypass this limitation?  Does anybody know what the JAR command object
limit is?
