| Tier Aware Batch Processing | The Things that Make Up this Example |
Local Execution (No Remote Tiers)
To use this example with no remote tiers (ie: as a standalone application):- Execute the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134 and make sure that you have this tier configuration:
| System | Valid Connection Details Are Required | APPL Tier | DATA Tier | PRINT Tier | BATCH Tier |
| Default Client | No | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself |
| Default iSeries | No | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself |
- Close the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134.
- Now execute form VL_SAM136 and test submitting VSAM137 to batch.
- In this configuration VSAM137 performs the batch activities on your local system and updates your local DBMS.
To use this example with a remote DATA tier (ie: as a thick batch application)
- Execute the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134 and make sure that you have this tier configuration:
| System | Valid Connection Details Are Required | APPL Tier | DATA Tier | PRINT Tier | BATCH Tier |
| Default Client | No | System Itself | Default iSeries | System Itself | System Itself |
| Default iSeries | Yes | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself |
- Close the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134.
- Now execute form VL_SAM136 and test submitting VSAM137 to batch.
- In this configuration VSAM137 performs the batch activities on your local system but is accessing a remote database tier.
To use this example with a remote BATCH and a remote DATA tier (ie: as a thin batch application)
- Execute the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134 and make sure that you have this tier configuration:
| System | Valid Connection Details Are Required | APPL Tier | DATA Tier | PRINT Tier | BATCH Tier |
| Default Client | No | System Itself | Default iSeries | System Itself | Default iSeries |
| Default iSeries | Yes | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself |
- Close the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134.
- Now execute form VL_SAM136 and test submitting VSAM137 to batch.
- In this configuration VSAM137 performs the batch activities on your remote iSeries server system. See the code in VSAM137 to understand how this is done.
