<h1 class="topictitle1">Load and unload data from non-<span class="keyword">iSeries</span> systems</h1>
<div><p>You can use the Copy From Import File (CPYFRMIMPF) and Copy To
Import File (CPYTOIMPF) commands to import (load) or export (unload) data
from and to a non-<span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> system.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>To import data from a non-<span class="keyword">iSeries</span> database
into an externally-described <span class="keyword">DB2 Universal Database™ for iSeries</span> database
file with the CPYFRMIMPF and CPYTOIMPF commands , follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Create an import file for the data that you want to copy. </span> The import file can be a database source file or an externally-described
database file that has 1 field. The field must have a data type of CHARACTER,
IGC OPEN, IGC EITHER, IGC ONLY, or UCS-2.</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Send the data to the import file (or, the from file). </span> The
system performs any required ASCII to EBCDIC conversion during this process.
You can send the data in several ways: <ul><li>TCP/IP file transfer (file transfer)</li>
<li>iSeries Access
support (file transfer, ODBC)</li>
<li>Copy from Tape File (CPYFRMTAP) command</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Create an externally-described <span class="keyword">DB2<sup>®</sup> UDB for iSeries</span> database
file, or a distributed data management (DDM) file, into which you want to
copy the data.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Use the CPYFRMIMPF command to copy the data from the import file
to your <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> database file. </span> If you have the <span class="keyword">DB2 UDB Symmetric Multiprocessing</span> product
installed on your system, the system will copy the file in parallel.</li>
</ol>
<div class="section"> <p>To export <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> database
data to another system, use the CPYTOIMPF command to copy the data from your
database file to the import file. Then send the data to the system to which
you are exporting the data.</p>
