Migration Guide
You have three options for migrating work that uses a database
feature:
- Database Manager menu choice
- Use this option to migrate the following:
- Database Access Set Runtime menu choice
- Use this option to add universal fields to your database
application. This is required for all Version 3.0 database
applications.
- Dynamic to Static menu choice
- Use this option to migrate a DB2 CLI application with universal fields to
a Static DB2 application.
The option(s) you choose, depend on the database your Version 3.0
application supports and the database you want your Version 5.5
application to support. You may need to use more than one
option. For example, if you are migrating a Version 3.0 native
DATABASE2 application to Static DATABASE2, use all three options
sequentially:
- Use the Migrate > Database Manager
choice of the VisualAge Organizer's Applications menu to
migrate native DATABASE2 code to DB2 CLI.
- Use the Migrate > Access Set
Runtime choice of the VisualAge Organizer's Applications
menu to add support for universal fields to the DB2 CLI code.
- Use the Migrate > Applications
menu of the VisualAge Organizer. choice of the Applications
menu to migrate the DB2 CLI code with universal fields to Static DB2.
The materials below describe how to use the three options.
