For a list of all of the available options, refer to the Attributes for Spawner and Attributes for Server. In general,
simple procedures work best. Any option can become the source of problems, so include only the options that you
need.
After you have created the STC procedure, you can start the object spawner by issuing an operator command:
Define the Object Spawner System Security Configuration
The z/OS system considers the object spawner a daemon process. Therefore, if the BPX.DAEMON profile of the
RACF Facility class is active and RACF program control is enabled, then the SAS and SAS/C load libraries specified
in the STC procedure must be program controlled. However, the userid under which the object spawner runs does not
require RACF READ access to the BPX.DAEMON profile.
If the following messages appear in the z/OS system log when a client attempts to connect, then a necessary library is
not program controlled.
ICH420I PROGRAM program−name [FROM LIBRARY dsname]
CAUSED THE ENVIRONMENT TO BECOME UNCONTROLLED.
BPXP014I ENVIRONMENT MUST BE CONTROLLED FOR DAEMON (BPX.DAEMON)

For a list of all available spawner invocation options, see Spawner Invocation Options. If there are no configuration
errors, the object spawner will assume a listening state by entering a detected wait state (DW).
Task 3: Create a SAS Startup Command
Create the Startup Command
The startup command is meant to build a parameter string that is capable of launching SAS. The startup command in
the spawner configuration must end with '−−' to indicate the end of the user specified parameters. Here is a sample
shell script (startsas.sh):
#!/bin/sh
#
# foundDashDash is a boolean. When TRUE,
# we found the string "−−" in our arguments.
#
foundDashDash=0
#
# Construct our arguments
#
args=''
for arg in "$@" ; do
if [ "$arg" != "−−" ]; then
tmp="$arg ";
else
tmp="SRVOPTS(''";
