Modifying Checkouts (ADSM)

What you can do

The ADSM transaction can be used to delete or modify the assignment of suspended compiler sessions. For example, a project leader can use ADSM to reassign ongoing work:

 Release nn.n                                                      volser
                      CA ADS and MAPPING Checkout Modification


                      Action  . . . . . .  2      1. Delete
                                                  2. Reassign

How it works

When a checkout is reassigned, the queue for the tool session remains in place, including uncompiled changes, but the user assignment is modified.

When a checkout is deleted, uncompiled changes are deleted.

Releasing the entity

You can release an entity through ADSM by leaving blank the field for the new user. The queue for the entity is maintained, and the entity is available for checkout by another user.
