Have a look at the console log of the TCPIP virtual machine. It
probably will tell you the TCPMAINT 198 has a read password that
should be specified on the OBEYFILE command to allow access. When you
have RACF it needs a permit to be able to link to the disk.

But... I am not sure you can in general make it work like this. Many
of the sections in the TCPIP PROFILE can not be repeated like that
(but it may be that you only get error messages for which cannot be
done).

The way I normally do this is
* create the new PROFILE TCPIP on the TCPMAINT A-disk.
* Compose a new file which has the differences in the way it would
work with OBEYFILE (also on TCPMAINT A-disk) and issue OBEYFILE
against that (with the read password of the disk)
* When I can still get to the system (so I did not break the stack) I
put the new PROFILE TCPIP on the TCPMAINT 198 and let TCPIP pick it up
there at next restart.

The good thing about this is that a FORCE / XAUTOLOG of TCPIP will get
it to what it was before you started the changes. The bad thing is
that you need to manually verify you extracted the right things as
being changed. Alternative is to recycle VM TCP/IP to activate changes
(with all nasty implications).
