Object Actions

Object Actions are only available for certain objects and are used to let CA SYSVIEW subcommands issue an action related to the object. The object actions available for an object relate to specific functionality of the object, like adding a data set to the APFLIST.

To add a data set name and volser to the APFLIST using the AFPLIST Object

  1. Select Add Dataset from the list of Object Actions.
