Report-Level versus Page-Level Access

When you select a SYSOUT group from CA View that has a status of DSK2, PDK2, or PRM2, CA View does one of the following:

Allows you to view or print the SYSOUT file directly from optical disk (page-level access)
Loads the entire SYSOUT from the optical disk into the CA View database (report-level access)

Notes:

DSK2, PDK2, or PRM2 all indicate optical disk secondary storage.
Most of the information in this document applies to both types of drivers. For more information about page-level access, see Optical Disk Page‑Level Access later in this chapter.
