Specifying details for the "To" data set

Type the “To” data set details. Use a combination of the Data set name, Member, and Volume entry fields to specify the partitioned, sequential, or VSAM data set to which you want to export the data. You can specify the name of an existing data set, or the name of a data set that you want the Export utility function to create.

If you are using a specific template or copybook for the To data set, specify the name of the template or copybook data set and, optionally, the member name, in the To Copybook or Template entry fields.

Use the Processing Options to select a number of options for the export process.

To proceed, press Enter.

If you selected Edit options (either by using a “/”, or by having previously used the A selection character for this option), the second of the Export Options panels is displayed.

If you selected Edit template mapping (either by using a “/”, or by having previously used the A selection character for this option), the Template Mapping panel is displayed for editing.

If you selected Batch execution (either by using a “/”, or by having previously used the A selection character for this option), the generated JCL is displayed using the ISPF editor, where you can review the JCL and submit the job for batch processing.

If you selected options 3. Batch, using Db2® utility and Edit UNLOAD options on the Export Options - (1 of 3) panel, before the generated JCL is displayed using the ISPF editor, the UNLOAD Options panel is displayed.

Otherwise, FM/Db2 exports the data from the From table to the To partitioned, sequential, or VSAM data set.
