The Change Management Script Editor provides
more functionality than the Data Object editor for making database
changes.
For example, with the Change Management Script Editor, you can:
- Make a change that requires and object to be dropped and re-created
- Define changes for multiple objects and run the changes all at
the same time
- Migrate objects, data, or both between database environments
Using the Change Management Script Editor requires
working with change management scripts. With these change management
scripts, you can define the changes to be made to your database and
any dependent objects, modify the commands that are used to unload
and load data, and include DB2 utility commands such as reorg, runstats,
and rebind. You can also use these scripts to undo any changes that
you have run against the database if you decide that the changes need
to be backed out.

Script Editor to make database changes, see Working with change management scripts.
Important: To use change management scripts and the
Change
Management Script Editor, the Database Change Management
feature of
Optim™ Database
Administrator must
be installed, and change management capability must be enabled. For
