Remote command and distributed program call server

Allows PC applications to issue commands and call programs on i5/OS™ and return the results to the client.

The remote command and distributed program call server support allows users and applications to issue iSeries™ CL commands and to call programs. The remote command support allows the user to run multiple commands in the same job. It also offers a better security check for iSeries users with limited capabilities (LMTCPB =*YES, in their user profile).

The distributed program call support allows applications to call iSeries programs and pass parameters (input and output). After the program runs on the iSeries server, the output parameter values return to the client application. This process allows applications to access iSeries resources easily without concerns about the communications and conversions that must take place.

The programs listed in the following table are included with this server.
