Displaying ignores in the Change Management database

Ignores can be stored either in the Change Management (CM) database or, if you are using them with IBM® Db2 Object Comparison Tool for z/OS®, in a data set.

About this task

This procedure does not apply to ignores that have been created in an explicitly named data set outside of Change Management. For information about how to create, view, and edit ignores in a data set, see Specifying ignores (IBM Db2 Object Comparison Tool for z/OS 13.1.0).

Procedure

To display ignores in the CM database:

  1. On the DB2 Administration Menu (ADB2) panel, specify option CM, and press Enter.
  2. On the Change Management (CM) (ADB2C) panel, specify option 3, and press Enter.
  3. Optional: At the bottom of the Manage Ignores (ADB2C3) panel, specify search criteria to filter the ignores that you want to display.
  4. On the Manage Ignores (ADB2C3) panel, specify option 1, and press Enter.

    The ignores in the CM database are displayed:

    On this panel, you can issue line commands to perform the following actions for any listed ignore:

    • See the definition of the ignore and modify it (by using the IL line command)
    • View details about who created the ignore and when and who altered it last (by using the I line command)
    • See which changes use the ignore (by using the CH line command)
    • Insert, delete, or update an ignore (by using the INS, DEL, and U line commands)
