You use this panel to specify the package library and select the packages you want to work with. The fields for the Package Functions - Entry panel are:

Project: The project that was specified on the SCLM Main Menu. This field is display only. An Alternate field also appears if you specified an alternate project definition.
Group: The name of the backup group. This field is required. There are no default values.
Type: The type from which information is to be deleted. The type value is determined by the current project definition.
Member: The name or pattern of the members to be processed. If the member name is left blank or a pattern is entered, a package selection list is displayed. You can use patterns for the member name. See Specifying selection criteria for details.
Package Member/Type Filter: Filtering is performed when a pattern is specified in the filter member and/or type fields. SCLM searches each package to see if it contains a matching member and type value. If no type field is entered then the filtering will match the member only. If no member is specified the filtering will match the type only.
Note: The status of the package on the subsequent package list will be the status of the first matching member if the member status is in error.
Match backed up members only: Use the match option to restrict the matching of members within a package to only backed up members. Set the match option to blank to match on all members referenced within a package.

Figure 2 shows the packages available for backout at a given level.

To the left of each package listed is a space for entering a line command:

S

Display the list of members in the package. For more information about the options available from the SCLM Package Member Details panel, see Package Member Details

R

Restore the selected package.

When you enter the R line command beside a member name, SCLM attempts to restore the selected package. If the operation completes successfully, the Status field displays the word "Restored" and the current date and time appears in the Restored Date/Time field.

Note: Only packages whose status is BACKEDUP can be restored with this command. The target members and backup members associated with this package are validated before the restore process is performed.

If an error occurs the status changes to indicate one of the following values:

INVTARG: At least one of the target members to be restored has a different date to the target member at the time the package was created.
OBSOLETE: At least one package member has been superseded by another package.

D

Delete the package and its associated backup members.

When you enter the D line command beside a package name, SCLM deletes the package and its corresponding backup members. If the operation completes successfully, the Status field displays the word "Deleted".
