Specifying a local build script

Use the -f and -b options to specify a local build script.

Syntax

–f [t | b] client_build_script –b copy_to_name
[t | b]
The t option (default) specifies that the build script file is a text file. Specify the b option if the file is binary. The z/OS® server accepts build files only in text format.
client_build_script
Specifies a build script file that resides on the client computer, which is transferred to the server for processing.
copy_to_name
Specifies a copy-to name for the build script. Remote Build script copies the local script to the server under the copy-to name.

Platforms
