To create a tiering policy group definition file:

• Execute the KTIMPORT command.

The command reads the data in the tiering policy information CSV file and disk configuration

definition file, and creates a tiering policy group definition file.

TIP:

If the SCAN parameter is specified, the command scans the range of the storage system

specified in the tiering policy information CSV file, and creates a disk configuration definition

file and a tiering policy group definition file.

Reference scripts

For details about how to create the script, see the following sample scripts.

• Creating a tiering policy group definition file: KTDEMO02

• Checking the contents of the created tiering policy group definition file: KTDEMO03

Example 1:

The code in this example imports a disk configuration definition file whose prefix is PREFIX1 and a

tiering policy information CSV file whose policy CSV ID is POLICY1, and creates a tiering policy

group definition file.

CALL KTIMPORT "MSG(msgstem.) PREFIX(PREFIX1) POLICY(POLICY1)";

Example 2:

The code in this example imports a tiering policy information CSV file whose policy CSV ID is POLICY1,

and creates a disk configuration definition file whose prefix is PREFIX1 and a tiering policy group

definition file simultaneously.

CALL KTIMPORT "MSG(msgstem.) PREFIX(PREFIX1) POLICY(POLICY1) SCAN";
