This page provides the following information for the customization of Universal Agent components:

  • Configuration
  • JCL procedure

(For information on applying product licenses to installed Universal Agent for z/OS components, see z/OS Installation - Licensing.)

Universal Broker Customization

Universal Broker Configuration

Universal Broker for z/OS uses a configuration file for its customizations. The configuration file is member UBRCFG00 in the UNVCONF library allocated to the UNVCONF ddname in the started procedure's JCL.

See the Universal Broker 7.3.x Reference Guide for details on configuring Universal Broker.

Universal Broker JCL Procedure

A JCL procedure is provided in member UBROKER in library SUNVSAMP.

Edit the JCL procedure to meet local JCL installation requirements. The TZ environment variable should be modified to meet your local time zone information.

See z/OS Installation - Time Zone Environment Variable for more information the TZ environment variable.

Universal Automation Center Agent Customization

Universal Automation Center Agent Configuration

There are two files used in defining the Universal Automation Center Agent (UAG) configuration:

  • UAG component definition file
  • UAG configuration file

The execution of UAG is managed by Universal Broker. The component definition file defines UAG attributes to the Broker. The Broker uses the component definition file to manage the execution of UAG. The component definition file is a member of the UNVCOMP library. The library is allocated to the UNVCOMP ddname of the Universal Broker started task. The member name is UAGCMP00.

The UAG configuration file defines system-wide customizations for UAG features and resources. The configuration file is a member of the UNVCONF library. The library is allocated to the UNVCONF ddname of the Universal Broker started task. The Broker passes the data set name to UAG when it is started by the Broker. The UAG component definition file defines which member of the UNVCONF library to use as the configuration file. The default member name is UAGCFG00.

See the Universal Automation Center Agent 7.3.x Reference Guide for details on configuring UAG.
