<h1 class="topictitle1">Overview of DDM functions</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>This topic gives an overview of the types of DDM functions that
|
||
|
can be done on a target server.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The following <em>file</em> operations, normally specified in <strong>HLL programs</strong>,
|
||
|
can be done on files at target servers:</p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>Allocating, opening, or closing one or more files.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Reading, writing, changing, or deleting records in a file.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
<p>The following <em>file</em> and <em>nonfile</em> operations, normally specified
|
||
|
in <strong>CL programs</strong> or by CL commands, can be done on files at the target
|
||
|
servers:</p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>Copying the contents of a file.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Performing operations on physical or logical file members (such as adding,
|
||
|
clearing, or removing members), but only if the target is an <span class="keyword">iSeries™ server</span> or <span class="keyword">System/38™</span>.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Accessing remote <em>files</em> for nondata purposes, such as: <ul><li>Displaying information about one or more files, using commands such as <span class="cmdname">Display
|
||
|
File Description (DSPFD)</span> and <span class="cmdname">Display File Field Description
|
||
|
(DSPFFD)</span>. These commands can display the file attributes of the
|
||
|
DDM file on the source system or the file or field attributes of the remote
|
||
|
file on the target system.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Controlling the locking of files on the target system, using the <span class="cmdname">Allocate
|
||
|
Object (ALCOBJ)</span> and <span class="cmdname">Deallocate Object (DLCOBJ)</span> commands.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Deleting, renaming, creating, and changing files using the <span class="cmdname">Delete
|
||
|
File (DLTF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Rename Object (RNMOBJ)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Create
|
||
|
Physical File (CRTPF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Create Source Physical File (CRTSRCPF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Create
|
||
|
Logical File (CRTLF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Change Physical File (CHGPF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Change
|
||
|
Logical File (CHGLF)</span>, and <span class="cmdname">Change Source Physical File (CHGSRCPF)</span> commands.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
<li>Accessing remote <em>systems</em> for non-data purposes: <ul><li>Send a CL command to the target system (an <span class="keyword">iSeries server</span> and
|
||
|
a <span class="keyword">System/38</span> only) so it can
|
||
|
be run there, instead of on the source system (where it might not be useful
|
||
|
to run it), using the <span class="cmdname">Submit Remote Command (SBMRMTCMD)</span> command.
|
||
|
The <span class="cmdname">SBMRMTCMD</span> command is the method you use to move, save,
|
||
|
or restore files on a target server. For example, a <span class="cmdname">Move Object (MOVOBJ)</span> command
|
||
|
might be sent to move a database file on the target server. (For typical uses
|
||
|
of the <span class="cmdname">SBMRMTCMD</span> command, refer to its description in Use
|
||
|
CL and DDS with DDM or refer to the CL topic for a more complete description.)</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
<p>Various other nonfile-related operations can also be done
|
||
|
on the target server.</p>
