Implementing HALDB design

To create a HALDB database, you perform a two-stage process: first, you define the data structures by using either the DBD Generation utility or DDL statements and, second, you define the database and its partitions to DBRC.

You can use either DBRC batch commands or the Partition Definition utility to define HALDB databases and their partitions to DBRC. This topic discusses defining HALDB databases using the Partition Definition utility, as well as allocating an indirect list data set (ILDS).
