COMMAND_FILE_PLAIN - UECLoad configuration option
- Stonebranch (Deactivated)
Description
The COMMAND_FILE_PLAIN option specifies the ddname / file name of a data set / file containing plain text values for command line option parameters.
Command files specify an additional source of command line options. Storing options in a file can be used in situations where it is not desirable to explicitly specify them on the command line. The options read from the file are processed exactly like options specified on the command line. The options must be in their respective command line formats.
UECLoad can process command files that are either in plain text or encrypted (see the COMMAND_FILE_ENCRYPTED option). It is strongly recommended that plain text files be further protected from unauthorized access using a native operating system security method, such as RACF.
Note
If a data set / file is specified in this option, it should not be specified additionally in the COMMAND_FILE_ENCRYPTED option. If it is, the data set / file specified in COMMAND_FILE_PLAIN will be used.
