z/OS views
These topics provide reference information about the z/OS views.
- The Console view
The Console view provides a history of the actions you have performed, such as submitting a job, or changing and saving a file. - The Data Sets view
When you are connected to a z/OS system, the Data Sets view lists all the data sets that you are authorized to view and that match the data set name qualifier you specify. You can open a data set to view the members. You can edit Partitioned Data Set (PDS) members that contain text, but you cannot edit PDS members that contain binary code. - The Host Connections view
The Host Connections view is the single place to manage all your system connections and login credentials. You can import or load shared connection definitions from an external file, and export definitions to a file. - The Jobs view
The Jobs view lists the completed and running jobs that you are authorized to view and that match the job name prefix and owner ID that you specify. The number of jobs you can see in the view depends on the JESENTRYLIMIT value that is set in the FTP server; the default value is 200. You can expand a job in the view to show the ddnames that are associated with the spool files, and open the spool files in an editor view to show the content. - The z/OS Job view
When you are connected to a z/OS system, the z/OS Job view shows all the output data sets for a specified job. The job name can be entered in the Job ID field or the Link to Selection button can be selected so that any job that is selected in the Jobs view is automatically displayed in the z/OS Job view. When you select an output data set in the z/OS view, the content of the data set is displayed in the view. - The z/OS UNIX Files view
When you are connected to a z/OS system, the z/OS UNIX Files view shows the zFS file system structure and contents. The files are shown in a tree structure and you can expand the tree to show individual files. - Properties view
The Properties view displays all the properties, or attributes, of the selected resource.
