Fields on the Add Workflow page

Table 1. Add Workflow page
Field	Description
Sequence	Order in which the workflows should be performed.
Name	Name for the workflow.
Description	Description of the workflow.
Must Perform on z/OSMF Host System	Indicator of whether the workflow steps must be performed on the host system or can be performed on another system in the same sysplex as the host system. Yes Indicates that the workflow steps must be performed on the z/OSMF host system on which the software instance resides. No Indicates that the workflow steps can be performed on the z/OSMF host system on which the software instance resides or on another system in the sysplex. When a new workflow instance is created, the user designates the system in the sysplex on which the workflow steps will be performed, whether that system is the z/OSMF host system or another system. Tip: Ensure that the Description property contains information that helps a user choose the appropriate system. For example, if the workflow steps are installation verification procedures (IVPs), instruct the user to choose the system on which the newly activated software runs.
SMP/E Element Type / SMP/E Name	If the workflow's definition file is SMP/E managed, the SMP/E element type and name for the file.
Partitioned data set member, sequential data set, or UNIX file	The location of the workflow's definition file if the file is not SMP/E managed.
