The IOA Global Variable database has a hierarchical structure consisting of several levels. This structure mirrors the hierarchical structure of the Control-M components of which a Control-M job is a part.
The levels in the IOA Global Variable database structure, starting from the lowest, are as follows:
Table 254 IOA Global Variable Database Structure Levels
Level |
Description |
---|---|
Variable |
Global variable in the IOA Global Variable database. |
Job |
Name of the job (JCL member) that appears in the MEMNAME field of the job scheduling definition. |
Group |
Group to which the job belongs. The name of the group appears in the GROUP field of the job scheduling definition. |
Application |
Application to which the group and job and belong. The name of the application appears in the APPL field of the job scheduling definition. |
Product |
M (Control-M). |
The importance of this structure is discussed in the topic "Global Variable Assignment and Syntax" below.
The levels in the Pool Variable database structure, starting from the lowest, are as follows:
Table 255 Pool Variable Database Structure Levels
Level |
Description |
---|---|
Variable |
Pool variable in the IOA Global Variable database. |
Pool |
