HDB(LOAD) - HDB Load
The HDB(LOAD) operand requests CICS PA to load historical performance data (List or Summary) or Statistics data from SMF data sets into an HDB.
A Recap report containing processing statistics is always printed at the end of extract processing.
The command format is:
CICSPA HDB(LOAD(hdbname)
[,OUTPUT(ddname)])
The options are:
- LOAD
- Specifies the name of the HDB to be loaded. The HDB must be defined in the Repository (DDname CPAHDBRG).
- OUTPUT
- DDname for the Recap report output. CICS PA records the results of the Load operation in this File. If not specified, CICS PA assigns a DDname of HDBLnnnn where nnnn is the numerical sequence number 0001-9999.
Note: LOAD ignores any additional HDB request operands, including
FIELDS and SELECT. Load processing uses:
- The Template to determine which fields are contained in the HDB. It does not use the FIELDS operand.
- Selection Criteria specified in the HDB definition and its Template. It does not use the SELECT operand.
