Hi Bill - unfortunately rc=6 is about as generic an error as you can get.
Just taking a swag - what are your OMVS settings? (D OMVS,L or D OMVS,O)
Do you start ARSSOCKD with the -v (verbose) option?
Are your parms listed in sysout? If so append them here.
You could also list your LE parms and post them here using this format for the EXEC statement:
//STARTARS EXEC PGM=ARSSOCKD,REGION=0M,TIME=NOLIMIT,MEMLIMIT=10000M,
// PARM='RPTOPTS(ON)/-S -I ARCHIVE -v'
