To use EasyMT as an unload data file or LOB data unload file, specify the mtguide and emtdef statements.
The mtguide and emtdef statements must precede the unload or lobunld statement.
mtguide{use|nouse} |

<path name>
Specifies the name of the file that defines EasyMT's MT attribute. The following items specified in this file take effect on EasyMT processing:
However, if the same item is specified in the unload statement or lobunld statement, the unload statement or lobunld statement specification takes precedence.
To use EasyMT, you need to initialize the MT to be used for the unload operation to the EasyMT-labeled volume format beforehand using EasyMT's EmtInit function or the emtinit command.
To use a multi-volume MT, you need to initialize all volumes.
The following shows the methods for specifying the initialization parameter:
Specification method | Value |

Specifying in the MT attribute definition file | voltype=EL |
