Command Validation

Every time a scheduled update is executed, CA CSM validates that the following is true:

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

If any of these rules are false, the command execution does not start, the task is not generated, and an error is logged in the STDOUT DDNAME in the JOBLOG for the CA CSM region.
