Qshell question interactive vrs Batch

Good Monday morning!

I did a quick search in the archive and did not see anything that was
relevant. Here is my problem.

I have a script that creates a zip file. The script runs in qshell
and looks like this;

cd $3
jar cvfM $2 $1

Where
$3 is the directory containing the file to be zipped and the archive
file to be created,
$2 is the file to be compressed, and
$1 is the name of the archive file to be created.

CL program executes the script as follows;

CHGVAR VAR(&COMMAND) +
VALUE('/QSHELL/compress.QSH ' *bcat &INFILE *bcat &OUTFILE *bcat &FOLDER)

QSH CMD(&COMMAND)

When I run it interactively, I get the new archive file that I
requested. Running it in batch I get the following error;

/QSHELL/compress.QSH: 001-0012 Error found starting child process.
System resources not available to complete request.

Where do I look for the issue? The library lists are the same for
interactive and batch.

Any thoughts?
