DB2 for i - DB Coding and Implementation Using DDS and CL Commands
Course code: OL62G
Duration: 3 Days
Prerequisite:
You must be able to:
• Use Program Development Manager (PDM) and Source Entry Utility (SEU) to enter source code into a source file
• Use PDM to create an IBM i object from a source file member
• Explain the function of DDS in defining files on the i
• Use Data File Utility (DFU) to maintain a physical file
Course Description:
Learn how to code, create and maintain DB2 UDB for i physical and logical files using native Data Description Specifications (DDS) and Control Language (CL) commands. Build a DB2 UDB for i relational database foundation, if you intend to write application programs for the IBM i system, however the course does not address SQL implementation of DB2 UDB for i.
Learn many techniques that, if implemented, enhance the performance of applications using the database.
Course Objectives:
After taking this course, you should be able to:
• Code the DDS and create the physical and logical files necessary to implement a DB2 UDB for i relational database
• Describe the advantages of a field reference file, code the necessary DDS and create a field reference file
• Explain how the choices made while coding the DDS and creating the file affect the performance of the system and the programs using the files
• Describe the considerations for using the DB2 UDB for i referential integrity and triggers
Intended Audience:
• This is a basic course for individuals who create and maintain a DB2 UDB for i database.
Course Outlines:
• The relational database model
• Creating physical files
• Creating logical files
• Database performance considerations for application design
• Database maintenance
• DB2 UDB for i referential integrity
• DB2 UDB for i triggers
• The relational database model
• Creating physical files
• Creating logical files
• Database performance considerations for application design
• Database maintenance
• DB2 UDB for i referential integrity
• DB2 UDB for i triggers
