ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(JAVA_OPTS) VALUE('-Djava.awt.headless=true') LEVEL(*SYS)
-          Change security for  Tomcat folder:
CHGAUT OBJ('<>') USER(*PUBLIC) DTAAUT(*RWX) OBJAUT(*ALL) SUBTREE(*ALL)
and will then start Tomcat using **SBMJOB**: 
SBMJOB CMD(STRQSH CMD('/www/apache-tomcat-5.5.36/bin/startup.sh')) JOB(TOM CATSVR) JOBQ(QTXTSRCH)
