How do we unload the DB2 tables using JCL?
BMC has more efficient tool "BMCLOAD" and "BMCUNLOAD"
than IBM utilities. Use BMCUNLOAD to unload DB2 tables. You need to write a JCL wherein you need to supply empty files to unload the data from DB2 tables.
If DBP1 is the subsystem name, then the below unload step can be used
//STEP001 EXEC DBP1UNLD,USER='USERNAME',ULDTAB='FILE1',DATE='UNLOAD(+1)'
//UNLOAD.SYSREC00 DD SPACE=(CYL,(65,10),RLSE)
//SYSIN DD *
CORP.TBMC01
CORP.TBMC01 is the tablename
A new GDG version of name USERNAME.FILE1.UNLOAD1 will be created.
