You can perform a mass-update of job attributes within a network.
To apply defaults modified in the network definition to all jobs in the network
Press PF9 (DfJb) on the Network Modification window.
A screen similar to the example below appears:
Owner EXAMPLE Network B60-FLOW Version Application of Network Defaults to Jobs C Field old new C Field old new _ Symbol Table _ Exec Node 31 42 _ SymTab Version _ JCL Node 31 42 _ JCL User ID _ JCL Loc NAT _ JCL Group _ Esc Act @ _ Submit User ID NOP _ Esc Sub $ _ Submit Group _ Job Prio _ BS2000 Def.User ID NOP _ Run Prio _ BS2000 Job Class _ EJA E-M N _ BS2000 Acct.Number _ SYSOUT User ID NOP _ SYSOUT Cat ID _ Modifying User (all) NATQA5 _ File old new SYSEORU S only if same old A all ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PF1 Help PF3 End PF6 SAP |
All network master definitions/fields on this screen are described in the section Fields and Commands: Network Definition.
Whether or not the new value replaces the old value is determined by a line command entered in the line command input field in the window (column headed C). This allows you to distinguish between those jobs which have the defaults set for the network and those jobs for which specific values have been defined.
The following line commands are available:
Line Command | Description |
---|---|
S
|
Replace value only if the old value matches the old default. Specific definitions made at the job level remain unchanged. |
A
|
Replace all values regardless of whether they are default settings or specific definitions. |
Enter the required line command next to the value you want to replace or leave the line command field blank for a value you do not want to replace.
Press ENTER when you are finished.
The specified values are now copied and updated as default values for all jobs of the network.
A message is returned indicating the number of jobs that have been modified.
For each job for which values were replaced, the name of the
definition that changed and the new default value are listed in the Entire
Operations log with a message like Network default Activation Escape
