To process a request

z/OS TSO/E Administration

  1. On the Names Directory Menu panel, select the REQUESTS option and press the Enter key.
  2. To view a request before processing it, type V in the field to the left of the request and press the Enter key. If you view a delete request, you see an entry from the names directory that a user wants to delete. If you view an add or modify request, you see information for the entry with the requested additions or changes in the appropriate fields.

    To compare information for an add or modify request with what is currently in the master directory, use the SPLIT PF key and view the entry in the master directory through the user services. To do this:

    1. Move the cursor to the top of the screen.
    2. Press the SPLIT PF key. You see the main Information Center Facility Administrator selection panel.
    3. Select the option for using the user services and press the Enter key.
    4. Select the option for using the names directory.
    5. If the request is a name, select the NAMES option. If the request is a group, select the GROUPS option. Press the Enter key.
    6. Find the name or group you want to view. Type V next to the name or group and press the Enter key.
    7. Swap back and forth between the master directory entry and the request using the SWAP PF key.
    8. When you are finished comparing the two entries, swap to the master directory entry and keep pressing the END PF key until you are back to the request in an unsplit screen.
  3. After you finish viewing the request, press the Enter key to return to the request list. Then do one of the following:
    • Accept the request by typing A next to the entry and pressing the Enter key.
    • Reject the request by typing R next to the entry and pressing the Enter key.

When you are finished processing a request, a message appears telling you whether the master directory was updated with the request. The originator of the request also receives a message.

Note: Requests must be processed one at a time. You cannot type a letter (V, A, or R) next to more than one request.
