Control File

The Control File is a subset of the database containing the following types of system and security information:

Site‑Defined Data

The name of the site and the name given to the CA‑PanAPT system in that organization. All report headers use these names. The Control File also retains definitions for site‑selected global names and processing options.

System Activity Information

The definition of all activities that can be done under this CA‑PanAPT system and which designated users or groups of users are allowed to perform those activities.

User Information

The definition of users to CA‑PanAPT. Users can be given special authority to perform CA‑PanAPT activities. The Control File also retains the capabilities of the default user (so all users need not be separately defined to CA‑PanAPT).

Verification Modeling Statements

The definition of the modeling statements for the 20 verification procedures. These are used by Move Request Run Verification Procedures.

Library Level Information

The definition of move levels at your site to CA‑PanAPT. This includes the names of your levels and the order of movement from one level to the next.

Access Methods

The definition of the Access Methods used by your CA‑PanAPT controlled libraries and the names of the user exits to interface to them.

CA‑Pan/LCM Configuration Manager Information

The names of Configuration Manager data sets and members, and other information required in order to use the Configuration Manager Impact Analysis member selection list and verification procedure.
