Exporting a physical data model to IBM Optim

After you annotate a physical data model with data privacy and masking options, you can export the data information to an Optim export file (*.oef). After you generate the Optim export file, you can open it in the IBM® Optim product and use it to generate masked test data so that sensitive information is not available to non-authorized developers.
Prerequisites:

To export a physical data model to IBM Optim:

  1. Open and select a physical data model diagram in the diagram editor.
  2. Click Data > Export to Optim.
  3. Specify export options in the wizard. Press F1 for more information about the wizard options.
  4. Click Finish.
The exported file is saved in the location that you specified in the wizard. You can open the file in the IBM Optim product and use it to generate masked test data.
