CDB/Auto-Unload unloads data directly from DB2 tables, Image Copies, or DSN1COPY much faster than alternative Unload methods. CDB/Auto-Unload will automatically determine record lengths and formats, while writing multiple output files in parallel from a single pass of the table.

In addition, CDB/Auto-Unload allows users to specify which rows are to be unloaded via a WHERE clause, and provides multiple output formats such as DSNTIAUL, UNLOAD, ARCHIVE, ASCIIDEL, and REPORT. Users benefit from decreased CPU time, reduced system load, reduced batch window size, and increased DB2 data availability.
