A generate operation computes and creates a transfer package. The transfer package is sent to a destination database. The transfer package includes a DCM information file, a preview file, and a data file or directory that contains the objects being transferred.
When you generate the transfer package, DCM automatically:
- Computes and creates the transfer package.
- Sends the transfer package to the destination database (optional).
- Receives the transfer package at the destination database (optional).
If you select email notification when you create a transfer set, DCM sends the addressee information about generate, transfer, and receive results. This data is also available in the DCM Event Log.
