The Rule Definition screen is used to define and modify rules. Rule definitions are used by Control-O to intercept and manage console messages (or commands, strings, or events). A rule definition that resides in the library is not "active" until it has been ordered. Rule tables can be ordered automatically each day or manually. For more information on automatic ordering of rule tables, see the Control-O chapter of the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide.
When ordering or forcing a rule table, if the table is already active under the Control-O monitor, it is replaced by the new copy of the table. All previous rules of the table are deactivated and replaced by the rules scheduled by the Order or Force.
Two ways to manually order rule tables are by using the O and F options of the Table List screen. These are described in Table 41.
Table 41 Options for Manually Ordering Rule Tables
Option |
Description |
|---|---|
O (ORDER) |
Check the rules’ Basic Scheduling parameters against the requested activation date. If a rule should be scheduled for that day, the rule is loaded into memory under the Control-O monitor. |
F (FORCE) |
Activate the rules regardless of what is specified in each rule’s Basic Scheduling parameters. |
When you use the O and F options, the default confirmation window shown in Figure 28 is opened. If the default has been modified in a profile variable, a different confirmation window, requiring double confirmation, is opened.

The specified date can be changed. To confirm your selection, enter Y (Yes) in the CONFIRM field. If you decide not to order or force the table, enter N (No). The original screen is displayed.
The ASK FOR EACH ONE line is displayed if more than one Order or Force is requested. If you are certain that you want to order or force all indicated tables, and do not want to change the ODATE for any of the individual tables, you can type Y (Yes) in the CONFIRM field to bypass individual confirmations and N (No) in the ASK FOR EACH ONE field, and then press Enter. All tables marked O (or F) are ordered.
