Create/Load Sample Database

Use the Create Optim Sample Database panel to populate the database with the sample data distributed with Optim™.

The default creatorid is FOPDEMOx; you can change it to something that is appropriate to your environment.

The sample database contains the following DB2® tables, Legacy Tables, and associated indexes:

Table 1. Contents of sample database
Table DB2 Index
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_CUSTOMERS FOPDEMO.XCUSTPK
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_SALES FOPDEMO.XSALESPK

FOPDEMO.OPTIM_ORDERS FOPDEMO.XORDERPK
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_SHIP_INSTR FOPDEMO.XSHIPIPK
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_DETAILS FOPDEMO.XDETLPK
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_FEMALE_RATES
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_MALE_RATES
FOPDEMO.OPTIM_STATE_LOOKUP
FOPDEMO2.CUSTOMERS FOPDEMO2.X2CUSTPK
FOPDEMO2.ORDERS FOPDEMO2.X2ORDRPK
FOPDEMO2.DETAILS FOPDEMO2.X2DETLPK
FOPDEMO2.ITEMS FOPDEMO2.X2ITEMPK
FOPDEMO3.ACCOUNTS FOPDEMO3.XACCTPK

For a detailed description of the sample database tables, see Appendix A. Sample Database Tables and Structure in the Common Elements Manual.

To create the sample database, the following panel is displayed.

Creating the Sample Database involves the following steps:

 1 - Specification of the Storage Group
 2 - Specification of the Database
 3 - Creation of the Sample Tables
 4 - Loading of the Sample Tables
 5 - Grant User Authority to Access the Sample Tables

In addition to the list of options, you are prompted for the following information only when you are not currently performing a full install or upgrade. Then, these values are specified on the initial menus for install and upgrade. When displayed, you can modify the values on this panel.

DB2 Subsys for Install
The DB2 subsystem into which the sample database is to be created. The sample database must be created in each subsystem in which it will be used.
Secondary SQLID
Optional name of a secondary SQLID to be used for the install process. If blank, the primary SQLID will be used.
Load Library DSN
Fully qualified name of the load library created when Optim™ was installed using SMP/E.
Install Library DSN
Fully qualified name of the dataset created when Optim was installed using SMP/E.

The menu lists the steps required to create and load the training database. You can press ENTER each time this panel is redisplayed and you will be prompted automatically through the steps in the listed order. As a result, the sample database creation process can be suspended and restarted later without having to repeat any steps. The system records the last step successfully completed and resumes with the next step in the sequence. The process restarts where you suspended it, provided the same TSO User ID and subsystem name are used. The following sections discuss each step in the order listed on the menu.
