Specifying Output Parameters

This section describes how to specify the following output parameters for

events or statistics data or both:

• Output ﬁle, data set, or table name

• Output mode (overwrite or append data to an existing ﬁle, data set, table,

or create a new ﬁle, data set, or table)

• Export Range (time period from which data was extracted)

Specifying an Output File/Data Set/Table Name

This section describes how to specify a name for the Output File/Data

Set/Table ﬁeld. If you choose instead, however, to accept the default ﬁle, data

set, or table displayed in the ﬁeld and have already saved data to it, you must

specify whether you want Data Export to overwrite or append data to the

existing data (see Specifying an Output Mode on Page 3-18).

You can also change the default ﬁle, data set, or table names by modifying the

value for the EventsName parameter for events and the StatsName

parameter for statistics in the Data Export SDE resource ﬁle (see Appendix D).

To specify an output ﬁle name:

Modify or overwrite the default output ﬁle, data set, or table name.

Specifying an Output Mode

This section describes how to use Output Mode button options to specify how

you want to save data to a events or statistics ﬁle, data set, or table.

To specify an output mode:

Select one of the following options from the Output Mode button.

Append The extracted data is appended to the output ﬁle, data

set, or table.

Overwrite The extracted data overwrites the data stored in the

ﬁle, data set, or table.

Date (For ASCII only.) The extracted data is stored in a new

ﬁle whose name is created by concatenating the date

and time to the name you speciﬁed in the Output File

ﬁeld.
