Viewing the history of change package processing

To review the history of processing a change package:

  1. On the primary menu, select option 3 Packages.
  2. Enter line action S (Select) next to the change package.
  3. Choose the History processing command.

    A list panel of the change package history appears.

  4. Select a change package event to view its details.

    For commands such as Backout, Import, Install, Migrate, and Newcopy, you can get further details of the resource definitions processed:

  5. Select the "Display resource updated by…" option, and then press Enter.

    A list panel of the resource definitions updated by the command appears.

    You can use line actions to examine individual resource definitions:

    • For Install and Newcopy commands: select resource definitions to view their version history.
    • For Migrate, Import, and Backout commands:
      • To view a side-by-side comparison of the attribute values of a resource definition before and after the command, enter S next to the resource definition. "After" values appear on the left side.
        Tip: To quickly review the changes to all resource definitions updated by the change package:
        1. On the command line, enter S * (S, a space, and then an asterisk).

          This inserts line action S next to every resource definition on the list panel, including those currently scrolled out of view.

        2. Press Enter.

          The side-by-side comparison for the first resource definition appears.

        3. Press the Exit key (F3) to move on to the next resource definition.
      • To view the version history of a resource definition, enter H next to the resource definition.

You can also produce a batch report of this information. For details, see Auditing actions and changes to resource definitions.
