Changing Links

The WHERE USED panel allows you to manage the links between the current entry and other entries in the policy database. The links are "parent-child" with the parent depending on the entry type.

The panel displays a list of all possible entries that may be linked to the current entry, showing entry name and type.

For example, the WHERE USED policy item for Systems allows you to change the links of one system to one or more groups or subgroups.

For example, the WHERE USED policy item for Applications allows you to change the links of one application to one or more application groups.

For example, the WHERE USED policy item for Application Groups allows you to change the links of one application group to one or more systems or sysplexes.

You can only add or remove such links, if no other user is accessing the "parent" entries. If another user is currently editing a "parent" entry, a message is displayed indicating that updates are not possible.
