Library Utility commands

z/OS ISPF Software Configuration and Library Manager Guide and Reference
SC19-3625-00

Type your selection in the Command field.

A, B, or M
SCLM displays the specified member or record if it is present.

While in Browse, all Browse commands are supported. Note that although a hierarchy view may be specified, the Library Utility only allocates the data set containing the existing version of the requested member. The Browse command executed from within View can only operate on members within the allocated data set.

V
SCLM displays the specified member if it is present.
D
SCLM deletes member data such as text, accounting, and build map records. When Confirm Delete has been selected on the Library Utility panel, you can choose which information to delete for the member (text, accounting information, and/or build map information). Otherwise, all information for the member is deleted. Delete is only allowed at the group specified on the Library Utility panel.

If you delete a member from a key group that also exists in a non-key group in a higher layer of the hierarchy, you must delete the member from the non-key group manually.

E
The SCLM Editor is invoked for the member specified in the Member field. A development group must be specified in the Group field. Once in the SCLM Editor, all Edit commands are supported. The library utility allocates the first four key groups for a project. If the member exists at a higher group, the group containing the member will be allocated, replacing the original fourth allocated group. The COPY, MOVE, and EDIT commands can only operate on members within the allocated data sets. The use of COPY or MOVE from within an Edit session invoked from the utility is not recommended.
C
SCLM Build is performed on the specified member.
N
SCLM modifies the "account status" on the accounting record to determine if the editable member is promotable or not. This option is only available on members with an accounting record and an "accounting status" of:
  • EDITABLE
  • NOPROM-N,or
  • NOPROM-R

For more information on this option, see Leaving a Member Behind on Promotion.

P
SCLM Promote is performed on the specified member.
U
SCLM displays an input panel and updates the authorization code according to your input. Update is only allowed at the group specified on the Library Utility panel. (To delete or update any data, you must have at least UPDATE authority to the specified data set.) Any value entered in the "New authorization code" field on the input panel remains there until it is changed by the user or the library utility is exited and entered again. There is a brief period during which changes made to a member's authorization code by another session or user will not be recognized. If you receive an unexpected error message while updating a member's authorization code, use the browse accounting record command to check the member's current authorization code. If the authorization code needs to be updated, try the update authorization code command again.
T
SCLM modifies the "Change user ID" field on the accounting record to transfer ownership of the member to another user. This allows the new owner to modify the member. This option is available if the following conditions are true:
  • member level locking is enabled
  • The user who is accessing the option matches the "Change user ID" in the accounting record or is defined as an SCLM administrator
  • The accounting record exists in a development group
W
Invokes the Where-used function. SCLM displays a list of components which include the selected component. Library utility commands (except W) may then be issued against the list members.

To perform commands against several members at once, use the member selection list.
