Creating File Descriptions With AUTOIDMS

Two methods exist for creating Master and Access Files.

  • One method is to create these files with your system editor, typing the declarations described in CA-IDMS Data Adapter Master Files and CA-IDMS Data Adapter Access Files. Use an Entity Relationship diagram and a detailed report from the IDMSRPTS utility (see CA-IDMS Data Adapter Samples) as guides.
  • The second method is to execute the AUTOIDMS facility. The AUTOIDMS Facility automatically creates Master and Access Files for network and LRF records. Minor editing may be required after the descriptions are generated.

This chapter describes the AUTOIDMS facility.

For instructions on how to install the AUTOIDMS facility, consult the CA-IDMS Data Adapter Installation Guide.
