XBMID
Specify XBMID to identify a specific active
XBM
subsystem to use for snapshot processing and zIIP processing in UNLOAD PLUS.
The variable ssid (subsystem ID) is the unique identifier that you specified when you installed XBM or SUF. If you are using XBM or SUF in a Db2 data sharing environment, you can use the value of the XBMGROUP parameter in place of the ssid. The XBMGROUP is the name of the cross-system coupling facility (XCF) group that is defined to the XBM subsystem, and its default value is XBMGROUP.
If you specify an XBM subsystem, it must be:
- Available
- At a supported maintenance level
- Enabled for the required function
If you do not specify an XBM subsystem (either here or with the XBMID installation option), UNLOAD PLUS automatically searches for an XBM subsystem that meets the same criteria. If you have multiple subsystems that meet these criteria, UNLOAD PLUS can use any one of these subsystems.
For more information about using XBM or SUF for snapshot processing with UNLOAD PLUS, see Running-SHRLEVEL-CHANGE-CONSISTENT-YES.
Specifying the default
You can specify the default for the XBMID command option in your installation options module by using the XBMID installation option. The XBMID command option overrides the default that is in the installation options module.
