LIM upgraded the implementation of Index Constituent Data
on your MIM server to include this information as a MIM symbol (relation)
rather than component text files. These component files were originally
accessed under /home/lim/dates/user/COMPONENTS.
These component files will be removed effective 8/19/2005. This
will required users to change the way they are used. Any queries that
reference the component files will no longer run, so users will need to
use the new relation names. If you have any questions, please contact a
LIM Customer Support Representative at:
support@lim.com. Use the Index Constituent Utility to see how alias names are mapped to constituent names for each of the Index Constituent categories. The initial upgrade includes the Dow 30, Nasdaq, Russell 1000, Russell 2000, S&P 400, S&P 500, S&P 600, S&P 1500 and S&P Toronto Composite. All the constituents are located in the schema in this path: TopRelation:Equities:UnitedStates:Constituents The Index Constituent Utility is located in the $LIMHOME/xmim/bin
directory in MIM server releases 4.5.25 Usage: xmim_get_constituents [-h] [-q host] [-p server_number] [-d database] [-r relation] where:

Example: The following example will produce the original file which was distributed to /home/lim/dates/user/COMPONENTS/GII.DJIA from the warehouse. $ xmim_get_constiuents –q localhost –p 0 –r Index_DJIA >/home/lim/dates/user/COMPONENTS/GII.DJIA This should be used for transition into the new syntax. In the future, the dates folder directories may not exist. The following example will print the contents of all of the constituents folders on a server. $ xmim_get_constituents –q localhost –p 0 Constituents (category) Nasdaq (category)
