Creating Persistent-ID In Batch Mode - A Scenario

Creating Persistent-ID In Batch Mode - A Scenario

Consider a scenario to perform initial clustering for a multi-search-definition that searches both name and address from a data set. The data set contains the information on households in a particular area.
  1. Use the following multi-search definition from the system definition file:
    multi-search-definition *====================== NAME= Household-Best IDT-NAME= IDT_HOUSEHLD SEARCH-LIST= "name-search,address-search" PERSISTENT-ID-PREFIX= HH PERSISTENT-ID-METHOD= Best PERSISTENT-ID-OPTIONS= Best-Undecided-Review OPTIONS= FULL-SEARCH *
  2. Define the following user job definition with the user step definition that passes the multi-search definition:
    user-job-definition *================== NAME= createAndLoad_Household COMMENT= "Create and load PID for Household" *user-step-definition *=================== JOB= createAndLoad_Household NUMBER= 0 NAME= "Create PID" TYPE= "Create PID" PARAMETERS= (Search, Household-Best), ("Create PID report only",false) *
  3. Create the batch input file,
    household_pidinitial.txt
    , that calls the following user job definition:
    # Create and Load PID # ------------------- action= job-run job-name= createAndLoad_Household system-name= householdsys rulebase-name= #SSA_RBNAME# work-directory= #SSAWORKDIR#
  4. Start the idsbatch utility and run the following command:
    For Windows:
    %SSABIN%\idsbatch -h%SSA_CSHOST% -i%SSAWORKDIR%\household_pidinitial.txt
    -1%SSAWORKDIR%\hhpidinit.log -2%SSAWORKDIR%\hhpidinit.err
    For UNIX:
    %SSABIN%/idsbatch -h%SSA_CSHOST -i%SSAWORKDIR%\household_pidinitial.txt
    -1%SSAWORKDIR%/hhpidinit.log -2%SSAWORKDIR%/hhpidinit.err
