 		metaserver=mybox.subdomain.domain.com,
 	  	metaport=port,
 	  	metauser=username,
 	  	metapass=password);

Output from the macro is written to a file called rmvinst.log, in the current directory. In the z/OS enviroment, the output is written to the SAS log. For more information about this macro and each of these parameters, please check the documentation provided inside the macro.
