Actions on an SNA Group Definition

You can perform the following actions from the SNA Group List:

F4 (Add)

Displays the SNA Group General Description panel for you to define a new SNA group.

S, /, or B (Browse)

Displays the Panel Display List, which lists the definition panels. When you select a panel, the panel displays the information in the BROWSE (read-only) mode. If you are authorized to update the definitions, you can press F4 (Edit) from a definition panel to switch to the UPDATE mode.

U (Update)

Displays the Panel Display List, which lists the definition panels. When you select a panel, the panel displays the information in the UPDATE mode.

C (Copy)

Displays the General Description panel in the COPY mode. Change at least the system image name, system image version, or group name. If you copy the definition to another image, any availability map and processes specified in the definition are also copied if they do not exist already in that image. (Global processes are already visible to the image and are not copied to that image.) If you copy the definition to another image and a definition of the same name exists, you are prompted to either replace the existing definition or cancel the operation. Replacing the definition does not remove any existing parent-child relationships.

D (Delete)

Displays a deletion confirmation message.

R (Relate)

Displays the list of immediate parents and children of the definition and enables you to update those relationships.

RG (Icon Resource Group)

Enables you to create a resource group so that the SNA group can be attached to an icon for display on the graphical monitor.
