Purpose | Use this page to display a banner announcement on each page of the space. Create the Space announcements page in the master space, outside of the Home branch. You can version the Space announcements page to enable different banners to be published into different target spaces, however, the banner that is displayed in the versioned (master) space itself only displays the most recently-published banner. If you find errors in the banner area of your versioned space and you are sure the Space announcements page is set up correctly, try publishing the page to the same space. For more information, see Space-announcements-banners. | |
Removing | When an announcement is no longer needed, remove the BMC Space Banner macro. | |
Translation | Localized spaces using the L10n Viewport theme must change the name of this page to Space announcements l10n. See Configuring-the-Scroll-ViewPort-theme-for-translated-spaces. | |
Usage | Choose one or none of the following BMC Space Banner macros. If your space requires another kind of announcement, you can use this page in coordination with your team lead and editors. | |
Data Base Hierarchy display
The following figure is the first screen displayed when you enter Option 2 in the Utility Selection Menu to display the database hierarchy for a specific database. In this screen you specify the name of the DBD that describes the database to be displayed, and the name of the DBD load library where that DBD resides.
For a COPE Managed Database or IMS Managed ACB, see COPE Managed Database or IMS Managed ACB .
Data Base Hierarchy - Data Base Specification Screen
COMMAND ===>
ENV: TEST - IMS ENVIRONMENT
Specify the DBD library and member for hierarchy display:
+ DBDLIB Dataset 1 . . 'TSOID01.FISAMP.DBDLIB'
Dataset 2 . .
Member . . (Blank or pattern for member list)
The presence of a highlighted plus (+) or minus (-) sign indicates data set concatenations. For more information, see Data-set-concatenation-support.
DBDLIB dataset 1 and dataset 2
Enter one or two DBD load library dataset names. If you enter one DBD load library name, you can enter it on either of the dataset name lines. If you enter two DBD load library names and their blocksizes are different, you must enter the library with the larger block size on the first dataset name line.
Member
Enter the DBD member name. If you enter two DBD library names, File-AID for IMS/ISPF searches the first before the second to locate the DBD member.
COPE Managed Database or IMS Managed ACB
The following figure displays the Data Base Specification Screen for a COPE managed database. The screen for IMS managed ACB is similar, except for the environment line.
Data Base Hierarchy - Data Base Specification (COPE)
COMMAND ===>
ENV: EC01 - IMS 14 COPE ENV LSYS=IEC01
Specify the DBD member for hierarchy display:
DBD Member . . (Blank or pattern for member list)
Current Environment
The top of the screen displays the environment definition name with its description. For COPE managed environments, it includes the name of the COPE logical system (LSYS), that is in effect for the current session.
DBD Member
Enter the DBD member that describes the database for which you want display the database hierarchy.
Terminating the Screen
Do one of the following to terminate the Data Base Hierarchy - Data Base Specification Screen:
Press Enter to proceed to the Hierarchy Display Screen.
If you leave the DBD Member field blank or specify a pattern, the DBD Member List screen is displayed next. If two DBD libraries are concatenated, the member list is a merged and sorted list of the members in both data sets. You can then select the DBD member from the member list.
- Enter the END or RETURN primary command or a jump command to terminate the hierarchy display process.

Press Enter for the DBD/SEGMENT information or,
TAB to the desired segment and press Enter for SEGMENT information
This screen displays the DBDNAME for the current database and the segment name and number for each segment in the database. For a COPE managed database, the DBDNAME displays the COPE C-number, for example, C0000823. If entered on a selected PCB, the display shows which segments are included and not included in the PCB.
You can scroll UP, DOWN, LEFT, or RIGHT to view parts of a database that might not fit on a single screen.
You can do the following on the Hierarchy Display screen:
- Press Enter without selecting a segment to display the DBD/Segment Information screen.
- Press TAB to select a segment, and then press Enter to display the Segment Information screen for that segment.
- Enter the END command to return to the edit screen.
