A UAP for handling batch jobs can be created if necessary. A UAP which handles the initialization, allocation, and deletion of DAM files as well as batch jobs is executed under the offline environment.

OpenTP1 facilities which can be used by a UAP that handles offline work are as follows:

• Facility to process physical DAM files
• Facility to edit journal data in the output file of the jnlrput command.

UAP that handles offline work cannot use the OpenTP1 functions which are used in online mode. The RPC for service requests cannot be used between a UAP that handles offline work and a UAP (SUP, SPP, or MHP) operating under the online environment. Services to be provided for another UAP cannot be created by a UAP that handles offline work.

The figure below shows a UAP that handles offline work.
