An overview of Move that walks you through a sample scenario
in which you extract, browse, and insert data.
Overview
IBM® Optim™ for z/OS® manages enterprise data throughout every stage of the information lifecycle. Optim™ enables you to assess, classify, subset, archive, store, and access enterprise application data.
Getting Started
This topic discusses getting started using Optim™.
Scenario 1 – A Set of Customers
In Scenario 1 you extract a selection of customers and related data from the DB2 tables in the Sample Database. You then use the extracted data to create a test database.
Scenario 2 – A Set of Items
Scenario 2 uses the same set of tables used in Scenario 1, but this scenario is more complex. You will extract a set of data that includes DETAILS rows related to ORDERS for specific ITEMS.
Scenario 3 – Legacy Tables
Other scenarios demonstrate the use of Move with data in DB2 tables. Optim Legacy can provide the same functionality for IMS, VSAM, and sequential legacy data, if the legacy data has a relational structure. This functionality allows you to create federated test environments (including data from both DB2 and legacy sources) or to migrate legacy data to DB2 tables.
Conclusion
This manual has proceeded through a Move session to create a test database by specifying the source data and the destination of that data. Several key facilities have been discussed, as summarized in this topic.
