Using the Database Utilities

>>CREATE

>>CREATE ORDERS

Respond to DBUTIL prompt with >> CREATE command and database name.

Database ORDERS has been CREATED

DBUTIL creates, initializes, and saves ﬁles named ORDERS01, ORDERS02, and so forth,

one ﬁle for each data set. These constitute the empty database.

Example (Job Mode)

:JOB MGR.ACCOUNTA

Initiate job.

:RUN DBUTIL.PUB.SYS

Initiate DBUTIL execution.

CREATE ORDERS

Enter >>CREATE command and database name.

EXIT

Terminate DBUTIL.

:EOJ

Terminate job.

After the data ﬁles are created and initialized, DBUTIL prints the following message on the

list ﬁle device:

DATABASE ORDERS HAS BEEN CREATED

NOTE

>>CREATE will fail if the native language deﬁned for the database is not

supported at the system level. (Refer to appendix A or the Native Language

Support Programmer's Guide for more information.)
