Use the following commands to manage projects:


Command

Description

NEW

This primary command creates a project as described in Creating and selecting a project.

FILTer

This primary command limits the list of projects displayed. The syntax of the command is:

FILTer [OFF|NAME|UPDate|ID],value

You can abbreviate the command to FILT. Use one of the following parameters with the command:

  • (default) OFF resets any existing filters. If you enter a value, it is ignored.

  • NAME, value limits the listed projects to those whose name matches the specified value. You can use the * wildcard character at the end of the value to match any characters.

  • UPDate, value limits the listed projects to those updated on or after the specified date. Specify a date in a yyyy/mm/dd format. You can use the * wildcard character at the end of the value to match any characters.

  • ID, value limits the listed projects to those updated by the specified user ID. You can use the * wildcard character at the end of the value to match any characters.

Locate

This primary command finds a project by name. The syntax of the command is:

Locate name[*]

You can abbreviate the command to L. You can use the * wildcard character at the end of the name to match any characters.

SORT

This primary command sorts the list by the values in a column. The syntax of the command is:

SORT [NAME|DESC|JCL|UPDate|ID]

  • NAME sorts the list by the project name in the Name column.
  • DESC sorts the list by the description in the Description/JCL Library column.
  • JCL sorts the list by the JCL in the Description/JCL Library column.
  • UPD sorts the list by the date in the Updated On column.
  • ID sorts the list by the user ID in the Updated By column.

Issuing the same SORT command two times in a row reverses the order of the sort, ascending to descending, descending to ascending, and so on.

You can also position the cursor on a column heading and press Enter to sort the column.

Select

This line command selects a project to use as described in Creating and selecting a project.

Modify

This line command displays the Modify Project panel on which you can change the project name, description, and JCL library used for the project.

When renaming the JCL library, you must enter a / in the Automatic JCL library rename to confirm that you want to rename the library.

You can also modify the description and JCL library for the active project on the Modify Project panel.

Info

This line command displays a list of all the products, solutions, families, and components that are included in the selected project.

Copy

This line command creates a project by copying another project as described in Creating and selecting a project.

Delete

This line command deletes the project from the list of projects and deletes the project from the Installation System repository. A confirmation panel is displayed.

Edit JCL

This line command displays a member list of the JCL library that is associated with the project. Select a member with the s line command to edit the member.

View JCL

This line command displays a member list of the JCL library that is associated with the project. Select a member with the s line command to view the member.
