Re: Custom TCP server after Restricted State

["Mark S. Waterbury" <mark.s.waterbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jason:

This CL program you show below will never work under any circumstances.

The SBMJOB does not allow you to specify embedded &variables as you have 
done; you must concatenate the entire command string into a single 
variable, and then you can issue:

    SBMJOB    CMD(&CMD) ...

and you must be careful about "embedded quotes" inside that &CMD string.

You may also want to issue a CHGJOB JOB(*) LOG(4 0 *SECLVL) within this 
CL program, prior to the SBMJOB command, to ensure you will always get a 
job log and you can see all diagnostic and error messages that may be 
produced.

Also, I would specify a JOBD on the SBMJOB command, with a *JOBD that 
specifies LOG(4 0 *SECLVL), so you always have a job log to examine, in 
the event something fails within the submitted job.

Hope that helps,
