Archive request model

You can use an archive request interoperability model to process an archive request in Optim™ and Optim for z/OS®.

An archive process copies a set of related rows from one or more tables and stores this data in an archive file. Initiate the archive process with an archive request, which defines the parameters for archiving and (if desired) deleting data from source tables, and saving that data to an archive file. An archive request references an access definition to define the data to archive and the parameters needed to run the archive process.

See the IBM® Optim Archive User Manual for details on the archive process.
