Snippet of shell script code to test if a directory exists in z/OS Unix System Services. #!/bin/sh DEST="/app/somedirectory" if test -d "$DEST" then # It is a directory # echo "Directory found ..." else # does not exist echo "Directory does not exist" fi
In this post a sample of how to perform a code page conversion of z/OS Unix files in a batch job. The different iconv utility lines show invocation for different code pages. //* //STEP1 EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH //STDERR DD SYSOUT=* //STDPARM DD * SH iconv -f UTF-8 -t IBM-1140 < inutf8 > outebc /* // SH iconv -f IBM-1140 -t IBM-1252 < inebc > out1252 // SH iconv -f IBM-1252 -t IBM-1140 < in1252 > out1140 // SH iconv -f IBM-1140 -t UTF-8 < inebc > oututf8 //
