BMC AMI Unload command and syntax reference

This version of BMC AMI Unload enables you to use either the UNLOAD or UNLD command to run your unload jobs. UNLOAD is the preferred command and future enhancements will be made only to the UNLOAD command.

Important

The UNLD command will be deprecated in a future release.

Although many of the options are valid for both commands, if you use an option that is specific to one command with the other command, BMC AMI Unload terminates with a syntax error. For example, you cannot use the OUTDDN option with the UNLOAD command, but you can use SPANNED YES with either command.

The UNLOAD command includes most of the options from the UNLOAD command in the BMC UNLOAD PLUS for DB2 product. For information about UNLOAD options that were valid in UNLOAD PLUS but are not valid for use with BMC AMI Unload, see UNLOAD-syntax-that-is-no-longer-valid.

You can use the BMC-AMI-Unload-OUTPUT-command with the UNLOAD command. 

Specifying object names in your unload syntax

Note the following information about specifying object names in your unload syntax:

  • You can use an alias or synonym wherever the syntax diagram shows a table name or view name.
  • BMC AMI Unload does not support Unicode table or view names.
  • BMC AMI Unload does not support delimited object names that do not have a character representation in EBCDIC.
