Execute UMET from z/OS Manager (with Table on Remote Server)

Execute Universal Message Translator from z/OS Manager (in a Script with Table Housed on Remote Server)

The following figure illustrates the execution of Universal Message Translator from a z/OS Universal Command Manager.

//S1 EXEC UCMDPRC        
//SCRIPTDD DD *        
/opt/universal/ucmdsrv-2.2.0/bin/umet -file /home/log.file -table\
/home/umet.table -level verbose    
/*       
//SYSIN    DD  *       
-host dallas      
-script SCRIPTDD  
-userid joe 
-pwd abcdefg  
/*

Universal Message Translator is executed in order to interrogate a log file and set the return code based on the translation table.

Since the command spans two lines, the native operating system continuation character must be used:

• \ for UNIX
• ¬ for Windows

The full path to the Universal Message Translator executable must be specified for UNIX if the path is not part of the user's profile.
