Exporting profiles

Once you configure a profile on one subsystem, you can then export the profile either to a data set or directly to another subsystem.

1. Type E in the line command area next to the profile you want to export and press Enter.
   The Export Options window is displayed, as shown in the following figure:

2. On the Export Options window, fill in the fields.
   The following describes the fields on the Export Options window:

   Export SSID

   Enter the SSID where you want to export the profile. If you do not export to a data set, the new profile will be directly exported to this subsystem.

   Export to Dataset

   If you want to export the profile to a data set, type Y in this field.

   Create Export Dataset

   If you want to export the profile to a data set, indicate if Db2 Automation Expert should create the data set for you. Type Y in this field to have Db2 Automation Expert create the data set. Type N to use an existing data set. Existing data sets must be FB type data sets with an LRECL of 4096.

   Dataset Name

   If you want to export the profile to a data set, type the data set name in this field.

   Member

   If you want to export the profile to a PDS, type the member name in this field.

   Typ

   The type of profile you are exporting. This field is read only. Valid types are OBJ, UTL, EXC, or JOB.

   Name

   The name of the profile that you are exporting.

   Creator

   The creator ID of the profile that you are exporting.

   Upd

   The update option of the profile that you are exporting.

   Status

   This field displays the status of the listed profile.

   • OK: The profile is ready to be exported
   • Warning - Profile no longer exists: This message might appear if you are exporting a job profile, and one of the object, utility, or exception profiles contained in the job profile has been deleted, but is still included in the job profile.
   • Warning - User not authorized to export: This message appears when a profile's Share Option is set to None, and your user ID is not the profile creator ID. You cannot export the profile unless the Share option was set to Update or View by the profile creator.
   • Warning - Version incompatibility: This message appears when a profile was created under a different version of Db2 Automation Expert. The profile cannot be exported.

3. Press Enter.
   One of the following occurs:

   • If you are exporting to another subsystem, when you press Enter, the Import Options window is displayed. You can then import the profile on that subsystem.
   • If you are exporting to a data set, a confirmation window is displayed; press Enter and the profile is exported.
