This section introduces you to the Super Natural Administration Application.
This section covers the following topics:
Super Natural administration is an independent application with its own command processor. The users' part of Super Natural is called the Super Natural Processor.
The Super Natural Administration Application has three distinct sections as shown below:
Super Natural
You use the main part of the Super Natural
Administration Application to maintain users, files (files, user files and
superfiles) and libraries (public, common and private). The user interface
conforms with the Super Natural Processor
application.
Natural Report Manager
Parts of Natural Report Manager are
incorporated. You can modify a user's layout options using part of the
Natural Report Manager Profile function. You can
modify the Standard Title for your site from the Special
Services menu using the Layout Editor.
Natural
The Natural LIST command is incorporated.
Choosing JCL Members from the Special Services menu is the
same as issuing the following Natural commands:
LOGON LIBRARY ZJCL
LIST *
The user interface for Super Natural uses menus, screens and windows.
Instead of the Description column found in the Processor application, the object list screens in the Administration Application have various information columns and do not have the Library and Library Type fields as shown below:
The Modify Object screens and the Import Files Object list screen have > navigation fields for navigating between groups of settings or object types in the bottom left-hand corner of the processing area as in the sample below:
To navigate between groups of settings or object types using
> navigation
Mark the appropriate > navigation field with the cursor position or any non-blank character and press Enter.
