To enable changes to a variable database loaded in memory to be immediately accessible by Control‑O rules, the modified database must be reloaded by use of the following operator command:
F CONTROLO,LOADGLOBAL=dbname |
WARNING: Issuing LOADGLOBAL is hazardous in a live system!
Changes to the databases (for example, through %%SET in JCL, DO SET, or SET VAR) are accumulated in memory and are written to disk during the next WRITEGLOBAL command (performed automatically for the IOAVAR database at set intervals). Between the changes and the WRITEGLOBAL command is a time window in which the LOADGLOBAL command will delete the changes. BMC recommends only using the LOADGLOBAL command for updating a database during a scheduled downtime.
Variables in a variable database can also be updated or modified using DO SET statements in Control‑O rules, or through SETOGLB statements in a KSL/KOA script. For more information, see DO SET in the parameters description chapter of the Control‑O User Guide.
Use the following operator command to save changes made to a variable database in memory:
F CONTROLO,WRITEGLOBAL=dbname |
To exit the Variable Zoom screen without implementing any changes, type CAN (CANCEL) in the COMMAND line and press Enter.
