Migrating Data Sets

This topic describes how to migrate Statistics Save data sets created by OMEGAMON® for DB2® PE V5.2.0 or V5.3.0 into the record format of OMEGAMON for Db2 PE V5.4.0.

To migrate Statistics Save data sets:

  1. Create a VSAM data set for V520 or V530.
  2. Define an OMEGAMON for Db2 PE V5.4.0 VSAM data set using IDCAMS as output.
  3. Use the MIGRATE function of the Save-File utility to migrate the data sets of OMEGAMON for Db2 PE V5.2.0 or V5.3.0.
  4. Restore the migrated VSAM data sets in V540 and compare the reports.

The RKO2SAMP library provides the sample job DGOPJSMI, which you can modify to suit your installation.

Note:
  • You can only process VSAM data sets in the same version of OMEGAMON for Db2 PE as they have been created. For example, if you create a SAVE data set in version 530, it can only be RESTORED in version 530.

    To use a SAVE data set in a higher version, you must migrate the SAVE data set using a migration utility.

  • Before you restore or convert SAVE data sets from V5.2.0 or V5.3.0, you must first migrate this data to OMEGAMON for Db2 PE V5.4.0 format.
  • Restored reports only show fields that are supported by the current version of OMEGAMON for Db2 PE.
