Runtime environment

The UPIC program is controlled via job variables in the BS2000 system.
UPIC evaluates the following job variables:

Job variable	Link name	Meaning
UPICPATH	*UPICPAT	The job variable UPICPATH defines the file directory under which the side information file is stored. If the job variable is not set, the current file directory is used for the search. If the agent is started under POSIX, the job variable UPICPATH must be supplied the value "/BS2/$<userid>2, since UPIC would otherwise try to open the upicfile in the POSIX file system.
UPICFILE	*UPICFIL	Specifies the right-hand part of the name of the side information file. If this variable is not set, the file name is set to upicfile. The complete file name is composed of UPICPATH.UPICFILE. If neither UPICPATH nor UPICFILE is set, the file name is "$progid.UPICFILE".
UPIC4SNMP.USER	---	UTM user ID used by the openUTM agent to issue administration commands. If the job variable is not set, USER=SNMPADM is used.
UPIC4SNMP.PASS	---	Password for the UTM user ID. If the job variable is not set, PASS=SNMPUPIC is used.
UPICTRACE	*UPICTRA	The job variable UPITRACE controls the trace generation (see section “Diagnostic documents”).
UPICLOG	*UPICLOG	The job variable UPICLOG defines the name of the logging file. If this definition is missing, the name is "##.USR.TMP.UPICL<tsn>".

Note that link name is created internally by openUTM agent.
