Searching resources
Use the following wildcards for a partial search:
Wildcard Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
% | Replacing one character, e.g. M9RES% |
* | Replacing zero or more characters |
When searching for a data set, the search displays available backup copies from incremental backup, full dumps, archived data sets, and Cloud Data Sets.
The search results page is divided into three tabs:
- Data sets
- Full volumes
- z/OS UNIX files
By default, the results are displayed in ascending name order. You can use each column ca for sorting. The sort icon is visible when clicking the column name. Additionally, the table contains column filters to allow further filtering of the results.
It is possible to perform immediate actions on the displayed items. You can perform actions on an individual item by using the three-dot menu, or on multiple items by using the actions listed on the upper right side of the page.
COMPLEX column
The value in this column indicates the resource complex, which you can use to distinguish between data sets or volumes with the same name in different complexes. You define the resource complex in the agent.yml file, with a default of the group-&SYSPLEX. You can associate an agent with one resource complex or associate several agents with the same resource complex. Agents sharing the same resource complex can all interact with the same resources. Actions such as backup, archive, recall, restore, and list are all dependent on the resource complex parameter.
