Common EUI administration actions

There are several common types of action commands that you can use with the business application services administration views:

ADD
To add an association between two definitions you can: The resulting panel prompts you to identify the other definition with which you want to create an association. Adding an association creates a relationship between the definitions in the data repository. Associations can be added between resource assignments and descriptions, between resource groups and descriptions, and between resource definitions and groups.
BROwse
To browse a definition, enter the BRO line action command next to the name of the definition you want to display. The resulting panel is a nonmodifiable version of the panel used to create the definition.
CREate
To create a definition and add it to the data repository you can: A business application services definition name can be 1 to 8 characters in length. The name can contain alphabetic, numeric, or national characters.
MAP
To display a visual map of the definitions in the data repository enter the MAP line action command next to the name of the definition you want to use as a starting point.

For a complete description of the MAP action command and the display it produces, see CICSPlex® System Manager User Interface Guide.

REMove
To remove a definition or an association between two definitions from the data repository you can: When you press Enter, a confirmation panel is displayed. Press Enter again to remove the definition or association from the data repository.
UPDate
To update a definition in the data repository enter the UPD line action command next to the name of the definition you want to change. The resulting panel is a modifiable version of the panel used to create the definition.

The ADD, CREATE, REMOVE, and UPDATE actions affect the contents of the data repository. The changes are applied immediately. The logical scope represented by your business application services definitions is also immediately updated.

Notes:
  1. The Version field of a definition cannot be changed.
  2. The TEMPMP action command is not supported for business application services views. The maintenance point CMAS must be active when you are creating or maintaining business application services definitions.
  3. All of these actions can also be performed using the batched repository-update facility, which is described in the CICSPlex System Manager Administration book.

A list of the specific action commands available for each view is included with the view descriptions. The online help for a view also identifies the valid action commands.

For more information about action commands, see CICSPlex SM User Interface Guide.
