In this exercise, you will create an Optim™ interoperability model for use on a z/OS® platform. The type of model
you will create is an extract request model. Optim interoperability models allow you to
conveniently create, modify, and run Optim for z/OS definitions from Optim Designer.
To create an extract request model for z/OS:
- In the Data Source Explorer view, right-click the Interoperability
Models folder and click . The New Extract Request Model wizard opens.
- On the Select a Project page, select the Optim project.
Click Next.
- On the Enter Extract Request Model Properties page, type CustExt in Extract
Request model name. Click Next.
- On the Select a Logical Data Model page, select OPTIMUSER.ldm.
Click Next.
- On the Select a Data Access Plan page, select Source
Plan. Click Next.
- On the Select a Platform page, select z/OS.
Click Next.
- On the Enter Access Definition Properties page, type Optim.User.Customers in Access
definition name and accept the default Creator
ID. Click Next.
- On the Enter Extract Properties and Options page, type Customer.xf in Extract
file name and accept the default options. Click Next.
- On the Select Objects to Extract page, accept the defaults.
Click Next.
- On the Enter Group Select Options page, accept the defaults.
Click Finish.
The new extract request model, CustExt, will appear under
the Interoperability Models folder. The request
will extract data defined in the source OPTIMUSER logical data model
and store it in the Customer.xf extract file. The request will use
the Source Plan data access plan to determine which data to select
from the OPTIMUSER logical data model.
