Using the Database Utilities
DBLOAD
2 Initiates execution of the DBLOAD program in the PUB group and SYS
account.
3 In session mode, DBLOAD prompts for the database name and maintenance
word. In job mode, the database name and maintenance word, if any, must
be in the record immediately following the RUN command.
The language ID of the database is stored along with data when DBUNLOAD
has been used to copy the database to tape. If the database native
language (on disk) is not consistent with the system level native language
(on tape), the following message will appear (refer to appendix A for more
information):
WARNING: The LANGUAGE of the database is DIFFERENT from
the language found on the DBLOAD MEDIA.
Continue DBLOAD operation? (Y/N):
NOTE
When using DBLOAD, the database language must match the language ID
stored in the backup media. If they do not match, DBLOAD will give you a
warning messages in a session, and if you reply Y, the DBLOAD will continue.
However, in a job, DBLOAD does not load the database.
4 After each data set is copied, DBLOAD prints a message on the list file
device which includes the data set number and the number of entries
copied.
5 When the end of a volume is encountered, DBLOAD prints a message
(where
z
is the logical device number of the unit,
XXXX
is the database
name, and
n
is the volume number). DBLOAD also instructs the operator to
mount a new tape with the following message on the system console:
MOUNT DBLOAD VOLUME
XXXXn
ON LOGICAL DEVICE
z
If the operator mounts the wrong volume, DBLOAD informs the operator
with the following message (where
z
is the logical device number):
WRONG VOLUME MOUNTED ON LOGICAL DEVICE
z
DBLOAD then terminates and you must begin loading the database again.
This requires executing the DBUTIL >>ERASE command again if any
entries have already been loaded.
6 After the data entries have been successfully loaded, DBLOAD prints a
completion message.
Console Messages
After you supply the database name and DBLOAD opens the input file, a message is
displayed on the system console. A tape must be mounted on the appropriate unit and
identified through an operator reply. Refer to the Volume Management Reference Manual
