Error description

• When connected remotely via CONNECT TO (DRDA) to another DB2
  data sharing group via the command CONNECT CHREI000SRZDB2T, the
  generated job from WSL is not correct as SYSTEM() is empty and
  the datasets prefixes are from the source system.
  
  The incident does not appear to be specific to WSL as it can
  occur when using ALT on any object.
