COMMAND_FILE_PLAIN - UEM Manager configuration option

Description

The COMMAND_FILE_PLAIN option specifies a data set (for z/OS) or local file (for UNIX and Windows) than contains command parameters. Storing these parameters and their associated values in a data set / file can be used in situations where it is not desirable to specify them explicitly on the command line.

The parameters contained in the data set / file must be in their respective command line formats.

The data set / file specified by this option is a plain text file. It is strongly recommended that this file be further protected from unauthorized access using a native operating system security method, such as RACF.

Note

If the data set / file name is specified in this option, it should not be specified additionally with the COMMAND_FILE_ENCRYPTED option. If it is, user information contained in the data set / file name file identified in this COMMAND_FILE_PLAIN option will be used.
