Variant Substitution - zOS

Variant Substitution - z/OS

This example demonstrates the use of variant substitution.

When Universal Connector is using pre-defined SAP jobs as template jobs (rather than Universal Connector job definition files), it may be necessary or desirable to replace the variants specified in the template job with variants more appropriate for the current job run. In this case, Universal Connector's target_variant option can be used to accomplish the variant substitution.
