CA IDMS DLI Transparency Load Utility › Step 3: Workfile Sort/Merge › Operation

Operation

The workfile sort/merge performs the following operations:

1. Accessing the workfile(s) resulting from the database load
2. Merging multiple workfiles (from multiple, logically related DL/I databases)
3. Sorting the workfile so that logical child records are sequenced under their logical parents

To execute the workfile sort/merge step, use the JCL in CA IDMS DLI Transparency JCL.
