Copy from Remote IBM i to Local z/OS via Universal Copy

The following figure illustrates the copying of a file from a remote IBM i system to a local z/OS system.

The JCL procedure UCMDPRC is used to execute the command. The command is sent to a remote system named dallas for execution. The UNVOUT DD specifies a local data set to use for the standard output of the remote command. The CPYMODE option is used to force end-of-line character interpretation.

Additional command line options are read from the encrypted file allocated to DD LOGONDD.

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

SYSIN Options

The SYSIN options used in this example are:

Option	Description
-script	DD from which to read a script file. The script file is sent to the remote system for execution.
-encryptedfile	DD from which to read an encrypted command options file.
-host	Directs the command to a computer with a host name of dallas.
