Copy from Local z/OS to Remote UNIX via Universal Copy

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

//S1 EXEC UCMDPRC
//UNVIN    DD DISP=SHR,DSN=hlq.input.file
//LOGONDD  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=hlq.userid(userid)
//SCRIPTDD DD *
/opt/universal/bin/ucopy -mode text \ 
-output /usr/output.file
//SYSIN    DD *
-script SCRIPTDD
-encryptedfile LOGONDD
-host dallas

The JCL procedure UCMDPRC is used to execute the command. The command is sent to a remote system named dallas for execution. The -output option is used with the ucopy command to direct the standard out to a local data set on the remote server. The path to the ucopy binary must be specified if the directory is not defined in the user's path environmental variable. The -mode option (value text) is used with the ucopy command 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.
