JCL Procedure

The following figure illustrates the Universal Query for z/OS JCL procedure (UQRYPRC, located in the SUNVSAMP library) that is provided to simplify the execution JCL and future maintenance.

The parameter UPARM is used to specify EXEC PARM keyword values for Universal Query. The PARM values to the left of the slash ( / ) character are IBM Language Environment parameters.

(See the section on z/OS Installation in the Universal Agent 7.2.x Installation, Upgrade, and Applying Maintenance for information regarding the customization of Language Environment parameters.)
