Navigating Through Functional Panels z/OS DFSMS Using the Interactive Storage Management Facility SC23-6856-00 |

There are different types of functional panels, but they all use the same navigation commands. You can use commands that you enter on the command line or program function (PF) keys that are preset with defaults. Controlling Functional Panel FlowTable 1 shows the keys and commands that control the functional panel flow. Enter the commands explicitly on the command line. You can also set up these commands as program function (PF) keys. For an explanation of the default PF key settings and how to change them, see Program Function (PF) Key Assignments. Tip: The descriptions and examples in this book assume that the command line appears at the top left of the screen. The command line on your screen might appear at either the top left or bottom left. You can control the command line location by using the ISPF Primary Option Menu and selecting Option 0.4, Display Characteristics.
Program Function (PF) Key AssignmentsISMF supports one set of PF key assignments for the Primary Option Menu and one for each of the ISMF applications. When you install ISMF, the Primary Option Menu and the ISMF applications have common PF key assignments. Table 2 shows the initial PF key assignments.
Displaying PF Key AssignmentsThe ISPF PFSHOW command displays the current PF key settings at the bottom of your screen. Once you enter PFSHOW, the PF key assignments remain until you enter the PFSHOW OFF command. Changing PF Key AssignmentsUse the KEYS command to change the PF key assignments. Because the ISMF Primary Option Menu and the ISMF applications all have their own sets of PF keys, the KEYS command affects only the menu panel or application in use when you enter the command. The new PF key assignments remain in effect until you alter them again. Simply enter the
KEYS command on the menu panel or any page of the application you
want:
ISMF displays a
PF Key Definition Panel with the current PF key settings for the ISMF
Primary Option Menu or application. Change the PF key definitions
on the PF Key Definition Panel to suit your needs.Related Reading: For more information on customizing PF keys, refer to z/OS ISPF Services Guide. |
