Importing SCRT files to a Repository

HCL Z Asset Optimizer supports the importing of z/OS SCRT generated CSV data files. Support is also available for TFP (tailored fit pricing) SCRT CSV data files.

Download the appropriate dataset from your z/OS host system in ASCII format to your local workstation environment.

Alternatively, you can use the API end-points /api/v9.1/scrt-import to upload and import, then API end-point /api/v9.1/scrt-import/progress to monitor the import processing progress from the z/OS host if the relevant tools are available on the z/OS system.

To import the z/OS HCL SCRT CSV file from your workstation, follow the steps given below:

  1. Click on the Import menu, select Perform SCRT Import.
