Migrating Your Data to FairCom RTG COBOL
Before your application is ready to use FairCom RTG COBOL, the data must be converted to a format that can be used by FairCom RTG. This is a one-time process that must be done before you can use FairCom RTG.
FairCom RTG provides a GUI tool to aid in migration, RTG Migrate, as well as a command-line utility, ctmigra.
SQL Access
If you will be accessing your data using SQL, you will need to see FairCom RTG SQL Access.
Configuring Your System
You can create a basic configuration file when you migrate your data with the RTG Migrate tool. This is done in the final step of the wizard, as described in RTG Migrate.
Much of the information you need for configuring your system is entered when you migrate your data, so the configuration file you create may handle your environment with no changes. If you have additional considerations that dictate a more complex configuration file, such as files that need to be treated specially, multiple clients, servers, etc., you will need to edit the resulting configuration file as described in Editing a Configuration File.
