DB2 for z/OS worksheet: Transfer your database

This worksheet highlights the fields and properties that you see in the Configuration Wizard when you use the database transfer option.

When you use the database transfer option, you answer questions about your environment. Some fields are required. Other fields are required or removed based on your selections for environment conditions.

Typical fields

The following table lists the typical fields that display when you select the database transfer option. To see additional fields that apply to an advanced configuration, click Advanced.

Depending on the conditions that you select, values that you enter for some typical fields might apply across domains. Rather than entering a value multiple times, this value is copied to fields in the Advanced view and applied across the database domains.
