Third-Party Copy via Local z/OS, from UNIX to Windows via Universal Copy

The following figure illustrates the third-party copying of a file from a local z/OS system, which executes a ucopy from UNIX to Windows.

//S1 EXEC UCMDPRC
//UNVIN    DD DSN=hlq.userid(#useridnt),DISP=SHR
//LOGONDD  DD DSN=hlq.userid(#useridunx),DISP=SHR
//SCRIPT   DD *
export UCMDPATH=/opt/universal/bin     
export UCPYPATH=/opt/universal/bin     
export OUTPUTFILE="c:\temp\outputfile"    
export INPUTFILE=/tmp/inputfile     
export NTHOST=nthostname       
export TEMPNTID=/tmp/tempntid        
export MODE=text       
$UCPYPATH/ucopy -output $TEMPNTID      
$UCMDPATH/ucmd \        
-cmd "ucopy -output $OUTPUTFILE"< $INPUTFILE \    
-host $NTHOST -encryptedfile $TEMPNTID -level info -stdin -mode $MODE   
rc=$?              
rm $TEMPNTID         
exit $rc       
//SYSIN    DD *       
-script SCRIPT      
-encryptedfile LOGONDD       
-host unixhostname    
-level info       
/*


All error messages will be routed to the z/OS manager. The authentication information for the NT server must reside on the z/OS.

The file is copied as a text file since the default transfer mode for standard files is text.
