If the status of a change switches from ANALYZED to DEFINED, displaying the superseding
change might help you determine the cause of the switch in status.
About this task
When a new change is created or imported to supersede an existing change, that existing change is
set to DEFINED status and needs to be analyzed again before it can be run. In this case, you might
want to see which change caused the status switch by viewing the superseding change.
Procedure
To view the change that supersedes a change:
-
On the DB2 Administration Menu (ADB2)
panel, specify option
CM, and press Enter.
-
On the Change Management (CM) (ADB2C)
panel, specify option
1, and press Enter.
- Optional:
At the bottom of the Manage Changes (ADB2C1)
panel,
specify any search criteria to filter or limit the changes that are displayed.
-
On the Manage Changes (ADB2C1)
panel, specify option
1, and press Enter.
-
On the CM - Changes (ADB2C11)
panel, in the list of changes,
enter the SBY line command next to the change for which you want to view the superseding change:
ADB2C11 n ------------------ CM - Changes -------------------- Row 1 to 4 of 4

Tip: The SBY line command displays the change that immediately supersedes the selected
change. If you want to view more prerequisite changes, use the PR line command.
