Issue/Introduction

When performing a transfer with XCOM for Windows 11.6 21110 SP01 64bit  using the following command:

   # xcomtcp -c1 -f /XCOM/config/xcomtst.cnf LOCAL_FILE=/temp/Test REMOTE_FILE=/Test/Rmtfile XENDCMD=/XCOM//xcomend.sh

The following error is received:
     ERROR: The XENDCMD field is a global parm that cannot be overridden

The same transfer with the following version ran successfully:

   XCOM Data Transport for Windows 11.6 15031 SP00 64bit (for <no SNA support>)

Environment

• XCOM™ Data Transport® for Windows 11.6
• XCOM™ Data Transport® for UNIX/Linux PC 11.6

Resolution

Parameter XENDCMD is only valid in the xcom.glb file and cannot be specified as a parameter on the "xcomtcp" command. The fact that it was possible to do so with r11.6 SP00 has been corrected with fix LU02560. 

Additional Information

1. The same would be with any of the other pre/post processing scripts parameters:

          XPPCMD=, XPRECMD=, XLPCMD=, XNOTIFYCMD=
