execute_migration_script – Execute the migration script that was generated with the ‘prepare_migration’ module

Synopsis

Execute the migration script that was generated with the ‘zowe dbm prepare migration’ command to migrate Db2 objects (DDL) and table data from a source subsystem to a target subsystem. The source and target subsystem IDs are specified within the script.

For details about command usage for automation, see DBM-Db2 samples at https://github.com/BroadcomMFD/dbm-db2-for-zowe-cli

.

Parameters

local_input_migrate_script_filename (required, type: str)

Specifies the local input migration-script file that was generated with the ‘zowe dbm prepare migration’ command.

restart (type: str)

Specifies the location in the script where you want to restart execution. The effects of previous successful script statement executions remain.

The following restart options are valid:

new - Restart execution of the script at the first statement.

name, token - Restart execution of the script at the location in the restart section that is recorded in the specified token and that was returned from a prior execution failure.

A section is a ‘.SYSTEM <name>’ statement, where <name> identifies a logical grouping of statements such as UNLOADS or SQLDDL. ‘source’ is an alias for UNLOADS. ‘target’ is an alias for SQLDDL.

error_file (type: str)

Specifies the local output error file in YAML format. The file contains basic execution information, connection details, dbm-db2 profile parameters, used arguments, and errors that occurred during execution of the command.

Default value: error.log

modification (type: str)

Specifies a named set of server-managed default parameter values that control the execution behavior of the zowe dbm-db2 commands. For example, you can use a modification to identify a set of default values that differ from the current set of default values.

For more information about using the modification option, see the DBM Data Service documentation at https://techdocs.broadcom.com/db2mgmt .

protocol (type: str)

Specifies the communication protocol between zowe dbm-db2 client and DBM Data Service.

Choices:

  • http

  • https

environment_list (type: str)

Specifies a string of one or more entries consisting of a Db2 subsystem ID and a DBM Data Service REST API server host name or TCP/IP address. Use a comma to separate entries. The same Db2 subsystem can be used in multiple DBM Data Service environments. For more information about configuring the DBM Data Service, see the Database Management Solutions for Db2 for z/OS documentation at https://techdocs.broadcom.com/db2mgmt.

job_cards (type: list)

Specifies a string array of z/OS JCL JOB statements.

work_dataset_prefix (type: str)

Specifies the prefix (high-level qualifier) in z/OS work data set names.

delete_work_datasets (type: bool)

Specifies whether to delete work data sets on a mainframe after the request is fulfilled.

overwrite_output_files (type: bool)

Specifies whether to overwrite output files if they exist.

base_path (type: str)

The base path for your Zowe API Mediation Layer instance. Specify this option to prepend the base path to all DBM DS resources when making REST requests. Do not specify this option if you are not using an Zowe API Mediation Layer.

host (type: str)

Host name of service on the mainframe.

port (type: int)

Port number of service on the mainframe.

user (type: str)

User name to authenticate to service on the mainframe.

password (type: str)

Password to authenticate to service on the mainframe.

reject_unauthorized (type: bool, default: True)

Reject self-signed certificates.

cert_file (type: path)

The file path to a certificate file to use for authentication.

Note: The CLI does not support certificate files that require a password. For more information, search Troubleshooting PEM Certificates in Zowe Docs.

cert_key_file (type: path)

The file path to a certificate key file to use for authentication.
