Creating and Maintaining the Global Index Database

The Global Index Database is implemented as a set of DB2 tables.

The following steps should be performed to install the Global Index Database:

1. Define which Control-V index paths you would like to load into the Global Index Database.
2. Create DB2 tables for storing these paths, and create DB2 indexes. For details see Creating DB2 Tables.
3. Prepare the CTDGIDB2 special member to describe the relationship between the Control‑V index paths and DB2 tables. For details see Relationship Between CTV Index Paths and DB2 Tables.
4. Bind the DB2 application plan for the CTDGID Global Index interface module. For details see Global Index Interface.
5. Prepare jobs for loading information into the DB2 tables. For details see Loading Information into the Global Index DB2 Tables.
6. Prepare jobs for cleaning up the DB2 tables. For details see Cleaning the Global Index Database.
