Migrate a DB2® Cluster to a Linear Data Set Cluster: Example 7

In this example, ALTER is used to alter a DB2® cluster, EXAMPLE.ABC01,, to a linear data set cluster.

//DB2TOLDS  JOB    ...
//STEP1     EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT  DD   SYSOUT=A
//SYSIN     DD   *
     ALTER  -
            EXAMPLE.ABC01 -
            TYPE(LINEAR)
/*

The command's parameter TYPE(LINEAR) requests ALTER change the data set type from ESDS to LDS.
