Operational Decision Manager (ODM) engine mode in DataStage®

The Operational Decision Manager (ODM) engine mode specifies the type of interface that the connector uses to locate the ruleset and configure the stage at design time and to establish the ODM session and invoke the ruleset at run time.

Core engine
In this engine mode, the connector accesses the ODM engine directly through the engine JAR file. The connector points the ODM engine to the physical ruleset archive file that contains the definition of the ruleset to be run.
To use this mode, you must export the ruleset as a ruleset archive. The ruleset is exported as a JAR file that must be copied on the computer on which the ODM engine is running. The path of this JAR file must be specified in the Ruleset location stage property.
