Re: Should I be concerned ....

QZRCSRVS is the remote command server for client access.  The message 
"Job message queue . . . has been wrapped" means that there were too many messages in 
that job's joblog, and therefore it had to erase the job log and start 
over.

On my system, the QZBSJOBD job description (the one used by QZRCSRVS) has 
a maximum job message queue size of 8mb.  that means that in order to 
wrap, you need to have sent more than 8mb to the job log of that job 
before it'd wrap.  (That's quite a few messages.)  The fact that this has 
apparently happened quite a few times might be worth looking into, if 
you're not expecting it.

For example, if you're running some fairly complex programs via the remote 
command facility of client access, and they log a lot of data to the job 
log, then it'd be expected that you'd have something like this, and it's 
nothing to worry about.

On the other hand, if you're not expecting this sort of thing, it might be 
a bunch of hackers sending lots and lots of remote commands to try to gain 
control of your system, and that'd be far more disturbing.

Try looking at the job logs for these jobs... maybe even change the 
JOBMSGQFL attributes to *PRTWRAP so that you can see what sorts of 
messages are being logged -- that way you'll have a much better idea of 
what's going on.
