Remember, we're talking about IBM Midrange systems, not *nix. So bash is 
entirely unknown to the OS; instead, startup.sh calls catalina.sh, with 
everything running under "QShell," a Linux-like front-end that was 
provided with Java.

Unfortunately, QShell doesn't appear to have anyplace to put "-x" as a 
parameter.

But it does appear to support "set -x" at the QShell command line. If I 
do that, then I get:
|    $
|  > set -x
|    +  set -x
|    $

|    +  catalina.sh
|    *-D
|    $

Well, it comes with the territory of running Tomcat on AS/400s, I 
suppose. I'm thinking I should bring in the Java list over at 
Midrange.com as well.
