Restrictions of the DEDB/HD Unload Conversion utility

There are some restrictions when running the DEDB/HD Unload Conversion utility.

  • Compressed unloaded segment records are not supported for DEDB, HDAM, HIDAM, or HALDB unloads.
  • Segment Subset Pointers (SSP) are not reproduced, nor is the SSP information from an unloaded record loaded onto a target database.
  • If only selected segment types are being loaded, all of the segment types in a given path must be selected; otherwise, the attempt may be made to load a child segment without loading the parent prior.
  • Non-HD standard unload format is not supported for HD unloads.
  • DEDB unloaded data sets containing segments having reached the Insert Limit Count (ILC) are not supported.
  • Processing of SDEP physical records is not supported.
