You can use the New Load Service wizard to create a z/OS® load service.
A load service transforms the contents of a source file
(either an extract or archive file) into the load utility format for
a supported database. A load service request specifies the source
file containing the data to load and other process parameters.
A
load service requires an Optim™ logical
data model to provide a map to the source data.
To create a load service:
- From the Data Project Explorer, right-click the Services folder
and click . The
New Load Service wizard opens.
- Complete the steps of the wizard.
You must
enter a name for the service and select an Optim data source, Optim logical data model, and data access plan.
You
must also provide names for the source and control files, and enter
load utility properties. Load utility properties include the name
of the loader parameter file, the dataset prefix for the loader, and
field specification files. The loader parameter file must be a fixed
block data set.
