Based solely on my knowledge of VM, without any specific knowledge of the 
product to which you refer, I'd conclude you haven't finished installing or 
configuring the user interface for this product so that your CMS users can see 
it. 

A return code of -3 means "command not found", such as BKRMD5 in this case. 
Something it trying to compute an MD5 checksum, but it can't find the program 
to do so. Maybe it got installed on 19E, but you forgot to save CMS after you 
put it out there? Maybe it's on a minidisk you don't have accessed? Maybe the 
server released its minidisks and re-accessed the ones it wants, dropping where 
you had installed BKRMD5 and the rest of the odds and ends? That's the first 
thing I'd track down about this set of problems: why can't "it" find BKRMD5, 
which is probably a MODULE.
