Load DB2 Table Information by Unload job

This job can be used before creating the extraction method. Be sure to specify a sequential unload of the files and insert the process identifier for reading the file.

Complete the values listed in the Secondary Options window for the Load DB2 Table Information by Unload job as shown below:

Insert the fields related to the sequential unload:

SYSPUNCH or DCLGEN name
The name of the SYSPUNCH or DCLGEN file.
Unload data set name
The name of the unload data set.
Process identifier
Process identifier used for the management of DB2 files with sequential access.
Application identifier
Application identifier (if applicable).

For the z/OS solution, the only DB2 utility for the UNLOAD of table supported by Data Manager is DSNTIAUL or a direct JCL Unload with some limitations.

The following is a sample of the JCL:

The previous JCl is supported only for those tables having owner name and or table name not longer than 40 character.

The following SYSPUNCH sample is the only format generated by the JCL described above which is supported by Data Manager:
