The following list describes the additional configuration options:

E - Edit active Config files: Make direct edits to the configuration files. For a particular configuration, all of the configuration files are listed in a single panel, which makes it easy to find and edit the files.
C - Command View: View the generated commands. You can also view the commands in the context of the workflow items from the Work Flow panel. However, this option shows a listing of the files in the data set in which they were created.
F - File View: View the generated files such as configuration files, PARMLIB members, and PROCLIB members. You can also view the commands in the context of the workflow items from the Work Flow panel. However, this option shows a listing of the files in the data sets and directories in which they were created.
L - Log view: View the log. This is the overall log for a particular configuration rather than the specific logs relating to a workflow item.
U - Utility Jobs: Generate utility jobs from templates. There are a number of jobs that are not part of a workflow, but are sometimes required, such as the Repotools jobs (like Export.) Tailor the jobs as needed from the options provided.
I - Installation Verification (IVP): Run the installation verification process (IVP) in foreground mode. Select the parts of the IVP to run. You can suppress informational messages with Suppress INFO, so that only WARNING and ERROR messages are produced.

When the IVP has run, information about the installation is returned in a data set.
G - Gather Debug Info: When requested by IBM support, gather debug information. This option collect all of the logs, configuration files, generated commands, and other information that might be useful in debugging an installation problem.
