Third-Party Copy via Local zOS, from UNIX to UNIX

Third-Party Copy via Local z/OS, from UNIX to UNIX via Universal Copy

The following figure illustrates the third-party copying of a file from a local z/OS system, which executes a ucopy command from UNIX to UNIX.


All error messages will be routed to the z/OS manager. The authentication information for both UNIX servers must reside on the z/OS.

The file is copied as a text file since the default transfer mode for standard files is text.
