The AOP group wanted something different than BPXBATCH. I believe that BPXBATCH was documented as running a Unix command but we stacked commands by using the semicolon command separator. AOPBATCH simply changes the problems. IBM doesn't need to address those problems because they are outside the scope of AOP.
