The Maintenance Option enables you to selectively create, review, and apply document enhancements. You can create document updates by using CA IDMS SASO batch or online utility functions. Enhancements created are loaded into the maintenance area of your database. Once a document update or a set of document updates is contained on your database, you can then review and optionally apply the enhancements you want to permanently incorporate into your document.
You can also migrate enhancements or a set of enhancements from one central version (CV) to another, or from one document to another document contained in the same CV. Off-loading and uploading maintenance is accomplished using batch utilities ESSMOFF and ESSMLOD.
This option also allows you to confirm or cancel requests to apply maintenance, and purge or delete maintenance from your database. A confirmation screen is displayed, permitting you to proceed with the request or cancel it.
The online Maintenance Option also provides statistical information about updates in the Release Maintenance List, the Chapter, Subject, and Topic Lists and in topic text displays. Informational displays include dates enhancements were created and uploaded into your database, dates and user IDs representing last activity within a maintenance release, and internal chapter, subject, and topic reference identifiers. Internal IDs are used to compare and match enhancements with structures contained in the document. For more information on internal IDs, see Operations.
