When magnetic tape is used for the input data file or the LOB input file, this option specifies whether MTguide is to be used for the magnetic tape mounting operation.

When mounting is already completed during the data loading with synchronization point specification, you need to mount from volume 1 again before re-executing.

use
Specify this option if you are using MTguide.
If you perform data loading on the LOB column structure base table and on a LOB column at the same time, specify use.

nouse
Specify this option if you are not using MTguide.
(b) emtdef MT-attribute-definition-file-name

~<path name>

Specifies the name of the file for which EasyMT is defined as the MT attribute. The following items specified in this file take effect during EasyMT processing:

However, if the same item is specified in the source or lobdata statement, the source or lobdata statement specification takes precedence.
