STEP4.3:

Create the tables in the database

To continue with the next steps

you must have installed a database management system (i.e. DB2).

you must have a JDBC Driver for it (i.e. db2java.zip in \java\).

you must be able to connect to the database (userid/password)

Make sure the JDBC driver is in the CLASSPATH. You may have to edit
the create.bat/create.cmd/create.sh batch files as well as the
run.bat/run.cmd/run.sh batch files and add the JDBC Driver Archive to
the classpath:

set CLASSPATH=.;xerces.jar;\java\

db2java.zip;

%CLASSPATH%

Also the path must setup to contain the DB2 libraries.
Start the "

Create DB2 Tables

" utility (create.bat/create.sh or

START -

Programs - VSAM Redirector - Create DB2 Tables

).

The tool prompts you for the following:

XML Filename: enter the name of the XML File you exported in the last

step (i.e.

ffstores.xml

)

DB url: enter a JDBC URL for your database, i.e.

jdbc:db2:sample

DB user: enter a user id you use for accessing the database

DB password: enter the users password

DB table name: Enter the name of the data table, i.e.

FFSTORES

. This

table will later contain the VSAM data.

Map table name: Enter the name of the table that contains the mapping

information, i.e.

FFSTORES_MAP.

You can use the same map table for

several clusters.

Map name: Enter the name of the map, i.e.

FFSTORES.

This name is

independent from the map defined with the VSE Navigator.

DB system: Enter

1 for DB/2

, 2 for Oracle.

The tool now imports the XML file and tries to connect to the database.

Next, the map info table is created (FFSTORES_MAP). Enter "Yes" to

continue.

Then, the data table is created (FFSTORES). Enter "Yes" to continue.

Cluster Type: Enter 1 (

KSDS without AIX

).

Primary key field: Enter the name of the key field:

STOREID

. Press

enter to create the table and indexes.
