Command Validation

Every time a scheduled update is executed, CA CSM validates that the following criteria are met:

• The command format and syntax is correct.
• Data that is defined in the command (product names, release numbers) is valid and correspond with the data in CA CSM database.
• The user issuing the command has appropriate credentials.

If any of these statements are false, the following events take place:

• The command is not executed.
• The task is not generated.
• An error is logged in the STDOUT DDNAME in the JOBLOG for the CA CSM region.
