Sending a Data Map to a Remote System

If the data source for a data map is on a remote system, send the data map to the remote system so that it is available to PowerExchange for bulk data movement operations.

When you send the data map to the remote system, PowerExchange converts the data map into a platform-independent file to use for bulk data extraction. The original data map remains on the PowerExchange Navigator system. If you change the local PowerExchange Navigator data map, you must send the data map to the remote system again to update the data map on that system.

Open the data map.

Click

File > Send to Remote Node

In the

Data Map Remote Node

dialog box, enter connection information for the remote system to which to send the data map.

The following table describes the connection information to enter:

Option	Description
User ID	If a user ID is required to access the remote system, enter a user ID. For supported Linux, UNIX, or Windows systems, if you have enabled PowerExchange LDAP user authentication, the user name is the enterprise user name. For more information, see the PowerExchange Reference Manual .
Password	If you specified a user ID, enter a password for that user ID. For access to an i5/OS or z/OS system, you can enter a valid PowerExchange passphrase instead of a password. An i5/OS passphrase can be from 9 to 31 characters in length. A z/OS passphrase can be from 9 to 128 characters in length. A passphrase can contain the following characters: Uppercase and lowercase letters The numbers 0 to 9 Spaces The following special characters: ’ - ; # \ , . / ! % & * ( ) _ + { } : @ \| < > ? The first character is an apostrophe. Passphrases cannot include single quotation marks (‘), double quotation marks (“), or currency symbols. On z/OS, the allowable characters in the IBM IRRPHREX exit do not affect the allowable characters in PowerExchange passphrases. On z/OS, a valid RACF passphrase can be up to 100 characters in length. PowerExchange truncates passphrases longer than 100 characters when passing them to RACF for validation. To use passphrases, ensure that the PowerExchange Listener runs with a security setting of SECURITY=(1,N) or higher in the DBMOVER member. For more information, see "SECURITY Statement" in the PowerExchange Reference Manual .
Location	Select the node name of the location of the system to which to send the data map. This field lists the locations that are defined in NODE statements in the dbmover.cfg configuration file on the PowerExchange Navigator system. Default is local .
Save User ID and Password(s) for session	Select this option to save the information that you entered for the duration of the session. Default is selected.
