Creating a Job Definition Using GENERATE JOBDEF Command - zOS
Creating a Universal Connector Job Definition Using the GENERATE JOBDEF Command - z/OS
SAP jobs offer many configuration options. Manually creating Universal Connector job definitions that utilize many configuration options can be tedious and time consuming.
Universal Connector offers a function that generates a complete job definition based on a pre-existing template job on the SAP system. The generated job definition can then be modified, if needed.
The following example demonstrates the use of the generate jobdef command.
//USPGEN2 JOB CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=X,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
