Filter volume pair selection

Use the FILTER command to display only volumes with particular characteristics.

You can use filters to reduce the number of volume pairs that are displayed to more easily work with large groups. When you enter the FILTER command, the following panel is displayed.

  F3 to apply filters to the table.

After you complete the filter criteria, press the F3 key. The next panel displays only volume pairs that match the criteria that you selected. Filtering remains in effect until you return to the main panel or until all filter fields are blank.

The following table lists the volume pair values that can be specified with the FILTER command.

Table 1. Volume pair filter criteria
Criteria	Description
Source Volser	The 6-character source volume serial number, or any leading portion of it.
Target Volser	The 6-character target volume serial number, or any leading portion of it.
Source UCB	The 4-character source volume serial number, or any leading portion of it.
Target UCB	The 4-character target volume serial number, or any leading portion of it.
Volume status	A 13-character field that matches character by character with the volume status. For example: COPY, UNINIT, TERM, and so on.

You can use the percentage sign (%) as a wildcard to mask one character. For example, A%%300 matches all values that start with A, have 2 characters, and end with 300. ABC matches all values that start with ABC. Do not use an asterisk (*) at the end of the criteria.
