You can use the Import utility to import objects in a UNIX
environment. The Import Utility copies object definitions from the
specified Input File to the current Optim™ Directory.
The Output File generated by Export is used as the Input File.
See Export for information about
creating a file to use as an Input File. These conditions apply when
importing in a UNIX environment:
- Determine the DB Alias, Optim Directory, and Creator ID for the
objects you want to import. In the pstlocal.cfg and pstserv.cfg files,
ensure that definitions exist for both the source and target DB Alias,
Optim Directory, Creator ID and password. See the Installation
and Configuration Guide, Appendix A - Install and Configure
the Server under UNIX or Linux.
- Before you attempt to import any other objects, import only the
DB Alias in a separate process.
- z/OS object definitions, Primary Keys, and Foreign Keys are unavailable
for import.
See Import for general information
about the Import process. Details on using the Import utility are
in Import Using the Interface.
