Note 1 A restricted instruction usually means that someone is trying to access a MI (Machine instruction) from a command line.
This also means that the security level on the machine (system value QSECURITY) is set to 40 or higher and does not allow any restricted instructions.
Note 2 The Java class object being created may not extend its base class because the base class has system Java attributes.
