QRep Automatic Refresh with ICU Decoding

ICBC load existing data from z/OS db2 to Oracle: z/OS exported file -> UDS (ICBC application) decoding -> SQL Loader import to Oracle DB.

For QREP automatic Refresh, decoding with customized decoding rule is required. It should be:

    Adding history from RFE-32426:

    3.Davendra PaltooDec 1, 2017 6:29 AMSerge: As mentioned before, we have a line item on our roadmap (for longer term, think 4Q18) to support automatic refresh (internal load) by exporting the data at the source and transmitting it to the target over MQ. With that future design it will be possible to invoke a user supplied script at the source against the data selected from DB2 to do any codeset mapping/data cleansing, which is what I believe ICBC is doing today. We can call their existing script from Capture, after Capture selects the data from DB2.

    IBM Response

    Thank you for submitting this RFE. We think this request is valid and that improvements to Internal Load that we already have on our roadmap will help to address this requirement. Please contact the lab directly if you need more details.

    1.Davendra PaltooOct 19, 2017 7:41 AMSerge: ties to fast internal load work item. We could provide a UE so the customer does the work for cleansing/manipulating the data.

    Answer:

    Redirect to the internal load feature where we would provide a user exit. Customer can ask lab for details.
