PowerExchange Data Libraries and Data Files on i5/OS

PowerExchange Data Libraries and Data Files on i5/OS

Each time you install a new release of PowerExchange on i5/OS, you specify a new location for PowerExchange software and data. You specify the location of PowerExchange data libraries either before or during installation, depending on the library.
The following table shows how you create each library:
Library
Created by
condlib
CRTPWXENV installation command, as specified by the CONDLIB parameter
cpxlib
CRTPWXENV installation command, as specified by the CPXLIB parameter
datalib
CRTPWXENV installation command, as specified by the DATALIB parameter.
The installation process installs the DBMOVER and CAPTPARM configuration files in this library.
dtllib
User, before installing PowerExchange.
The installation process installs the license file, LICENSE(KEY), in this library.
STDATAMAPS
User, before installing PowerExchange. You can select the library name. STDATAMAPS is the default.
The following table summarizes the PowerExchange data files and members on i5/OS:
