Change commands can be deployed from the Deployment Script Editor
and issued against a DB2 database catalog.
Prerequisite: You must have a working connection to your existing
databases and models of those databases in the Data Project Explorer before
deploying your changes.
To deploy changes to the database catalog, complete the following
steps:
- From the Deployment Script Editor, review
and verify the information for your deployment script.
- Click Deploy Changes to the Target Database from
the Overview page or the Change Commands page to start the Deployment wizard.
- Complete the steps in the Deployment wizard to deploy your changes.
The Deployment wizard checks to see if your
base model matches the database catalog. If the base model does not match
the catalog the change might not deploy correctly.
For more information
on what to do if the base model is out of synch with the database catalog
see the Common Problems topic.
Your changes have now been issued to the DB2 database catalog. The
DB2 database catalog is updated and contains your changes. You can view the
deployment results for each change command in the Data Output view.
DB2® Change Management Expert also creates a deployment
log file.
DB2 Change Management Expert manages
the deployment and records the model version and other information for audit
purposes.
