Fields on the SSM Action Command Editor Panel

The SSM Action Command Editor panel contains the following fields:

EDIT

Displays the action command editor command name that invoked this panel.

System

Displays the MSF ID of the system on which the action table resides. '*' means the local system. The system name may not be changed on this panel.

Wait

Displays the maximum number of seconds to wait for a cross-system response (1-300).

Action Table

Displays the name of the action table that contains the action being displayed. The action table may not be changed from this panel.

Ver

Displays the highest version of SSM met by the table's column structure.

Len

Displays the maximum length of any action text entered for this table. If the characters UC appear after the length, then all action text is in upper case.

Process

Displays the SSM process event name that invokes this action.

Current

Displays the required current state value for this action to be selected.

Desired

Displays the required desired state value for this action to be selected.

Actmode

Displays the required action mode value for this action to be selected.

Resource Table

Displays the required SSM resource table name for this action to be selected.

Resource Name/Type

Displays the required resource name or optional type column value for this action to be selected.

Action Command

Displays the action command keyword followed by the reconstructed action keyword operand text that has been reconstructed from the text units displayed in table portion of the panel.

The text unit portion of the display is initially populated by parsing the text into REXX words. Thereafter, formatting is controlled by line commands and data entry. The CONT (continue) column may be a blank or '+' sign. The '+' indicates that the text is continued on the next text line without an intervening blank. Otherwise, the text is reconstructed by appending each text unit line to the previous line separated by a single blank. Trailing blanks are removed from each line and blank lines are ignored.

You can use the CANCEL primary command to exit this panel without any changes to the action command text. Otherwise, the END command will return the modified action command to the action text panel.
