CA IDMS DLI Transparency Load Utility › Step 6: Prefix Update › Operation

Operation

The prefix update step performs the following operations:

1. Accessing the IPSB load module
2. Accessing the hierarchically sorted workfile from Step 5
3. Obtaining the already loaded logical child records from the CA IDMS/DB database
4. Moving the prefix (logical parent concatenated key) from each workfile record into the corresponding database record
5. Writing the updated logical child records back to the database
6. Connecting each logical child database record with its related logical parent database record (that is, establish correct set pointers)
7. Producing a report showing the results of the processing

To execute the prefix update step, use the JCL in CA IDMS DLI Transparency JCL.
