Multi-Database Logical Relationships

Load Databases Separately

If logical relationships involve more than one database, you must load each database separately (Step 2, under "The Database Load Process", earlier in this section).

Separate Logical Workfiles are Created

Each database load that you perform creates a separate logical workfile. You must make sure that the workfile from each load is available for the workfile sort/merge processing (Step 3). If a required workfile is not available, the prefix resolution processing (Step 4) encounters unresolved logical relationships, and you have to perform the database loads again.
