This panel shows the following information about the specified application group:

The resource name. You can overwrite this input field.
The name of the command target (system name, domain ID or sysplex name). The target is necessary only if the application group is not part of the local SAplex. You can overwrite this input field.
A description.
Its type, nature and model.
Its vote propagation behavior.
Its behavior to reach the desired status.
Whether the application group is monitored at IPL time to detect the completion of an IPL.
SERVER and MOVE APG: whether a move can be prepared.
MOVE APG: whether starting and stopping of the group members can be performed in parallel.
The determination of the group's compound state.
The target destination where the group's status change should be sent.
Optional: its owner.
Optional: a link to additional related information.
Optional: a list of systems where the group's members must be removed from (exclude) or must not be started on (avoid).
SERVER and MOVE APG: the effective Availability and Satisfactory target.
Optional: policy definitions.
Optional: captured messages.

You can press PF9 to refresh the information about the current application group.

You can press PF4 to invoke the INGINFO command to get details about the application group from the automation manager's point of view.

You can press PF5 to invoke the INGGROUP command to perform actions on the application group.

You can use the FIND (F) command to search the displayed data for a specific string. The line containing the string is then displayed as the top line of the display. To repeat your search, use the RFIND (RF) command, optionally followed by the direction parameter, P (previous) or N (next). The default is next. For example, to locate the line containing "abc", enter F abc. To locate the next "abc", enter RF or RF N.
