Searching the z/OS environment inventory

You can search z/OS environment inventory for any application that contains a z/OS type component. Search is performed for a specific file in the artifacts belonging to the z/OS components deployed to that environment.

1. Navigate to the environment of interest (Applications > application name > Environments > Environment: environment name.
2. From the menu options for the environment, select Search Z Artifacts.
   
3. Enter the name of the file to search in the Search Z Artifacts dialog, then click Search.
   You can refine your search result by using the following approaches:

   • Use wildcard syntax (*) after you enter a partial file or version name.
   • Limit the search scope by selecting any one of the applications, environments or components. The component filter is exclusive to an application or environment filter.

   Notes:

   • The search report displays the deployments done in z/OS agent v7.3.1 and later, and plug-in z/OS-Utility v80 and later.
   • By default, the search result shows active records that match the searched criteria. You can include inactive records by selecting the Show Inactive Records checkbox.

   Tips:

   • File name search is case-insensitive and version name search is case-sensitive.
   • The File name or Version name are required fields for searches.

   The z/OS search report shows information in the columns below:
