Adding options to loading DSCLI(DS Command Line Interface)

Loading the DSCLI code from Windows/IBM i requires Java 8 or newer plus using the ftp protocol.  When the company has removed the use of Oracle Java and replace with another version of Java for the company to use,   Second, company has block the use of ftp from either desktop or laptops in the company.

Giving customers a choice selection of java vendors and transfer protocols to loading the software on various platforms.

 

I have to use the dos prompt to load the software right now:

Path to the dsclisetup.exe file  

Using LAX_VM optioni

Path to the java vendor directory java.exe u

 

c:\users\user\desktop\images\hmc\disk1\instdata\windows\novm\dsclisetup.exe LAX_VM "C:\java directory\bin\java.exe  - this gets the gui screens start to load.
