MBDT Configuration Utility

The MDBT Configuration Utility enables you to configure options for the following tools:

SQLTP2 tool

Enables you to specify how to handle dynamic SQL statements during migration.

HCOSS

For SQL Server databases in which dynamic SQL statements are z/OS DB2 statements. This option is required when you are using HCOSS to migrate the database and your code contains z/OS DB2 DDL statements.

Agnostic

Default. For SQL Server, DB2 LUW, Oracle, and PostgreSQL databases in which dynamic SQL statements are specific to the DBMS vendor specifications.

SQLUTB tool

Enables you to specify the issuing of single or multiple commit statements during a LOAD operation. The default is a single commit issued after all records have been loaded.

We recommend that you use the single commit to provide optimal performance. However, if DBMS logging or other such issues are a concern, you might prefer the multiple commit. For the multiple commit, you also specify a batch size (number of rows). During the LOAD operation, a commit is issued each time the batch size has been reached.

You can run the MBDT configuration utility from an independent UI, or from the command line.

For complete information about running the MBDT Configuration Utility from the command line, see the mbdtconfig command topic.
