Display only. CA‑PanAPT displays the action you previously entered.
Optional. Not available during INQ actions. Valid values: INS, CHG, DEL, UNDEL.
To add a new level to your CA‑PanAPT system, enter the INS Line Cmd after an existing level and press ENTER. The Library Level Maintenance panel opens up an area after the existing level for you to enter the information for the new level.
It is important that you enter the INS Line Cmd on the proper existing level. The levels are displayed in the order that movement takes place. In the example, movement flows from TEST to QA to PROD. If you enter the INS Line Cmd on the QA level and added a new level, movement would then flow from TEST to QA to your new level to PROD.
When you add a level, CA‑PanAPT adds Activity records to the Control File for MOVEREQ‑APM???? and MOVEREQ‑APB‑???? where ???? is the short name of your level. These activity records are set up so no one can approve a Move Request for movement or back out at the new level. Don't forget to proceed to Activity Maintenance when you are done with Library Level Maintenance to update these activities.
To change a level from your CA‑PanAPT system, enter the CHG Line Cmd for the level you want to change and press ENTER.
Note: It is not necessary to type CHG to effect changes; it is implied if the Library Level exists and the Line Command is blank. Lines marked for deletion cannot be changed.
To delete a level from your CA‑PanAPT system, enter the DEL Line Cmd for the level you want to delete and press ENTER. Normally, the Library Level Maintenance panel redisplays with a message under the description for the level indicating that a delete of the level is pending. The level is not actually deleted until final panel processing, at which time it (and any other levels pending deletion) is deleted if no Library Codes or Move Requests have any references to it. Also, levels pending deletion are removed during the Move Request purge job (APJJ5950) if they are no longer referenced. There is one instance where the level is deleted immediately. That is when the level was just added during the current Library Level Maintenance session. In that case, the add of the level has not been performed yet on the Control File, so there is no possibility of its use by any Move Requests or Library Codes, and the level is deleted immediately.
If a level is pending deletion and you change your mind and want to keep it, enter the UNDEL Line Cmd next to the level and press ENTER.
Required. Length: 1‑20. Type: alphanumeric.
This is the long name for a level; it is used in various reports. Each level must have a unique Long Name.
Required. Length: 1‑4. Type: alphanumeric, no embedded blanks or special characters.
This is the short name for a level; it is used in various reports and panels. Each level must have a unique Short Name.
Required. Length: 1‑2. Type: alphanumeric, no special characters or leading space.
This is the abbreviation for a level. Each level must have a unique abbreviation. This is used mostly in the abbreviated 1‑6 character status for a Move Request. Some batch programs accept Move Request status as a selection parm, so this field also affects the JCL members for those programs.
Required. Length: 1. Type: alphanumeric.
When a level is added to a library code, the default DD names for the data sets used by that level are built by appending the 1‑7 character Library Code name with the DD suffix. Backup and Back Out data sets additionally have a B or O appended. This is to help construct DD names that are unique. While it is not necessary for each level to have a unique DD suffix, it is in your best interest to do so, otherwise when a non‑unique DD name is constructed in a Library Code, Library Code maintenance might require you to change the default.
Required. Length: 1‑70. Type: alphanumeric.
