The configuration file must be updated by adding an entry for each target Engine using the add command.
Syntax
sqdconf add <cab_file_name>
--key=<name>
--datastore=<url>
[--active | --inactive]
Keyword and Parameter Descriptions
Keyword | Description |
---|---|
<cab_file_name> | Must be specified and must match the name specified in the previous create command. |
--key=<name> | Source object name. That will be the VSAMDD in the CICS File Control Table (FCT) for the VSAM Capture and the RECALIAS parm from the Keyed FIle Compare Capture. The IMS Log Captured provide more flexibility:
|
--datastore=<url> | -d <url> | While most references to the term datastore describe physical entities, a datastore URL represents a target subscription and takes the form: cdc://[localhost]/[<agent_alias>]/<subscriber_name> where:
|
[--active | --inactive] | Mark a table as active or in-active for capture. The table will remain in the current state until the capture is stopped, applied and re-started. The default is --inactive. |
Note:
- It is important to develop a standard for how Datastores also known as target subscriptions will be identified, particularly if a large number of Datastores will be defined.
- --key - Precisely recommends using the DBD Name for each IMS DBD when using the IMS TM Exit Capture because the XPARM can accommodates Subset Routing where wild cards may have been specified.
- The use of the --key parm to effectively Filter the data based on various IMS database attributes can also be supplemented by use of the IMS Log Reader Capture Filter Exit.
