Copy from Remote IBM i to Local Windows via UCMD Manager
Copy from Remote IBM i to Local Windows via Universal Command Manager for IBM i
The following figure illustrates the copying of a file initiated by Windows, which copies the first member of a file from IBM i to a file on the Windows system.
ucmd -host sysName -userid userId -pwd password -cmd "strucp frmfile(mylib/myfile)" > D:\tmp\File400.txt
UCMD running on Windows invokes STRUCP via a UCMD Server running on IBM i. The FRMFILE parameter overrides input from stdin to the file mylib/file
. Since the FRMMBR parameter is not used, input defaults to the file member *FIRST. Data is transferred from mylib/myfile
to D:\tmp\File400.txt
via UCMD Manager stdout.
The command STRUCP is installed as part of UCMD Server on the IBM i system.
The file is copied as a text file, since the default transfer mode is text.
