Looking for help on how to automate/batch the update source/target table descriptions & mapping of source/target column for a z/OS DB2 source to Solaris Oracle target mirror continuous subscription.
A common task for us is to ALTER ADD columns to tables currently used in multiple CDC subscriptions. The manual work required to do this via Management Console is tedious and time consuming. Thus I'm looking an alternative process to use - i.e. batch and/or script.For a subscription where the source is z/OS DB2 and the target is Solaris Oracle, does anyone know how to build a batch process or script to do the following - I have z/OS CDC commands for all but steps 4 & 5):
Mirror Continuous Subscription XXXXXXXX: Source = z/OS DB2, Target = Solaris Oracle

Hi
If you have Infosphere Data Replication 10.2 on both source and target you can use the chcclp utility introduced in that version to do all the CDC steps.
If you are still on 6.5 or below I would recommend that you upgrade to 10.2 to get the benefit of the newer functionality. You will probably need to speak to your account manager to get your CDC entitlement migrated to IDR.
