Unloading a database with FABHFSU

To unload a database by using the FABHFSU utility in standard mode, you must select the format of the unload output and modify the basic JCL.

Procedure

To unload a database by using the FABHFSU utility, complete the following steps:

  1. Select a region type from ULU and DLI, and prepare the basic JCL.

    For instructions for preparing the basic JCL, see Preparing the basic JCL.

  2. Code the additional DD statements to meet the JCL requirements of FABHFSU.

    For additional JCL requirements, see FABHFSU JCL requirements.

  3. Code DBD and PSB control statements in CARDIN data set to specify HSSR PCBs used for the database call and to specify the segment sensitivity.

    The DD name and record format for each output data set can be specified in a PSB control statement. See Unload output format supported by FABHFSU and FABHFSU CARDIN input data set.

  4. Optional: If necessary, specify other control statements in CARDIN data set.

    See FABHFSU CARDIN input data set.

  5. Optional: Code HSSROPT and HSSRCABP control statements to specify the options for HSSR Engine.

    These control statements are optional. For more information, see FABHFSU HSSROPT input data set and FABHFSU HSSRCABP input data set.

  6. Submit the JCL to run the FABHFSU job.
  7. Check the output reports and messages.

    In addition to the standard output reports produced by HSSR Engine, several reports are produced in the PRNTOUT data set. To interpret the reports, see FABHFSU output: PRNTOUT output data set.
