Using the CMRDETL view

The following procedure describes how to use the CMRDETL view. 
 

1. Enter the EDIT on the command line to enter Edit mode.In Edit mode you can:

   • Delete a definition by typing the DEL command in the CMD field next to the definition; then press Enter. 
     
     
   • Modify a definition by typing CHA (CHAnge) in the CMD field next to the definition; then press Enter.
     
     
   • Verify how the definition will work for a given target by typing VER in the CMD field next to the definition; then press Enter. The BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CICS History File Definition Verification dialog is displayed. For more information, see Verifying-definitions.
     
     

2. To create a definition, perform one of the following actions:

   • To create an entirely new definition, type ADD on the COMMAND line; then press Enter.

   The History File Specification dialog is displayed. If you use an existing definition, some of the fields will contain data; otherwise, the fields are blank.
