- EC Number
- Displays the engineering change (EC) number
of the internal code change.
- Retrieved Level
- This field displays the
internal code change level
that was most recently copied for an
object,
making it available for installation.
Compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the installed level
to determine whether
your latest available change level
has been installed:
-
If the retrieved level is
higher than the installed level,
then the change level has been retrieved,
but has not been installed.
The object, when activated, will operate without
your latest available level of the internal code change.
-
If the retrieved level is equal
to the installed level,
then the change level has been retrieved and installed.
The object, when activated, will operate with
your latest available level of the internal code change.
- Installable Concurrent
- This field
displays the highest retrieved
internal code change level
that can be installed and activated concurrently.
That is, you can install and activate all change levels
retrieved for an
object,
from the current installed level
up to and including the installable concurrent level,
without disrupting the operations of
the system.
Compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
installed level
to determine whether
one or more retrieved change levels
can be installed and activated concurrently:
-
If the installable concurrent level is blank,
then none of the retrieved change levels
from the current installed level
up to and including the current retrieved level
can be installed and activated concurrently.
-
If the installable concurrent level is
equal to the installed level,
then all of the retrieved change levels
that can be installed and activated concurrently
are already installed.
Note: Compare the installable concurrent level
with the
activated level.
If they are equal, then the installed concurrent change
levels are also already activated.
Otherwise,
you can use console tasks for changing internal code to activate
concurrent internal code changes for the object.
-
If the installable concurrent level is
higher than the installed level,
then all retrieved change levels
from the current installed level
up to and including the installable concurrent level
can be installed and activated concurrently.
Note:
You can use console tasks for changing internal code to
install ad activate
concurrent internal code changes for the object.
For example, when:
- The Installed Level is: 002.
-
- And the Installable Concurrent Level is: 004.
-
Then
you can use console tasks for changing internal code to install
change levels: 003 and 004,
and then activate them
without disrupting the operations of system.
-
Installed Level
- This field displays the
internal code change level
that was most recently prepared for activation
as a working part of the licensed internal code of an
object.
Compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
retrieved level
to determine whether
a more recent change level has been retrieved:
-
If the retrieved level
is higher than the installed level,
then a more recent change level has been retrieved,
but has not been installed.
The object, when activated, will operate without
your latest available level of the internal code change.
And the object currently is operating without
your latest available level of the internal code change.
-
If the retrieved level is equal
to the installed level,
then the change level has been retrieved and installed.
The object, when activated, will operate with
your latest available level of the internal code change.
If the retrieved change level is installed,
compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
activated level
to determine whether
your latest available change level
has been activated:
-
Activated Level
-
This field displays the
internal code change level
that was most recently activated
as a working part of the licensed internal code of an
object.
Compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
installed level
to determine whether
a more recent change level has been installed:
-
If the installed level
is higher than the
activated level,
then a more recent change level has been installed,
but has not been activated.
The object is operating without
your latest available level of the internal code change.
-
If the installed level is equal to the activated level,
then the change level has been installed and activated.
Note:
Compare the installed level with the
retrieved level
to determine whether the object is operating with
your latest available level of the internal code change.
If the retrieved change level is installed and activated,
compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
accepted level
to determine whether
your latest available change level
has been accepted:
-
If the activated level
is higher than the accepted level,
then the change level has been activated,
but has not been accepted.
The object is operating with
your latest available level of the internal code change,
but it is not yet a permanent working
part of the licensed internal code of the object.
-
If the activated level is equal to
the accepted level,
then the change level has been activated and accepted.
Your latest available level of the internal code change
is a permanent working
part of the licensed internal code of the object.
-
Accepted Level
- This field displays the
internal code change level
that was most recently made
a permanent working
part of the licensed internal code of the
object.
Compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
activated level
to determine whether
a more recent change level
has been activated:
-
If the activated level
is higher than the
accepted level,
then
a more recent change level is currently activated,
but it is not yet a permanent working
part of the licensed internal code of the object.
Note:
Check the
retrieved level
and
installed level
to determine whether the object is operating with
your latest available level of the internal code change.
-
If the accepted level is equal to
the activated level,
then
the change level currently activated
is a permanent working
part of the licensed internal code of the object.
Note:
Check the
retrieved level
and
installed level
to determine whether the object is operating with
your latest available level of the internal code change.
-
Removable Concurrent
-
This field
displays the lowest installed
internal code change level
that can be removed such that
the remaining installed change level can be activated concurrently.
That is, you can remove all change levels
installed for an
object,
from the current installed level
down to and including the removable concurrent level,
and then activate
the change level that remains installed
without disrupting the operations of
the system.
Compare the number in this field
with the number displayed for the
installed level
to determine whether
one or more change levels currently installed
can be removed concurrently:
-
If a number is displayed for the
removed level,
then all more recent change levels currently installed
will no longer be
installed
when the object is activated again.
-
If the removed level is blank,
then the change level currently installed
will be activated
when object is activated again.
-
Removed Level
-
This field displays the
internal code change level
that will remain installed
and become activated when the
object
is activated again,
while the installation of all more recent change levels is undone.
Check this field to determine whether
change levels currently installed
will be removed:
-
If a number is displayed for the
removed level,
then all more recent change levels currently installed
will no longer be
installed
when the object is activated again.
-
If the removed level is blank,
then the change level currently installed
will be activated
when object is activated again.
