Import Observation

import observation icon
Import Observation provides a means to import a previously exported observation to the active started task. The entry fields include the Import dataset name, optional description and option to delete the imported dataset. A dataset list button is also available where a dataset name can be selected from datasets that are listed based on a full or partial dataset name. When the OK button is clicked, the observation is imported and the Observations List refreshed with the new observation.

Note:
This action is only available if the z/OS connection has been established and the remote repository is active.

Dataset List

The Dataset List dialog provides a means to retrieve a list of datasets based on a dataset name pattern, where the results are displayed and a single dataset may be selected. The dataset name may include filter keys which are interpreted as follows:

*
A single asterisk by itself indicates that either is a qualifier or one or more characters within a qualifier can occupy that position. An asterisk can precede or follow a set of characters.
**
A double asterisk indicates that zero or more qualifiers can occupy that position. A double asterisk cannot precede or follow any characters; it must be preceded or followed by either a period or a blank.
%
A single percent sign by itself indicates that exactly one alphanumeric or national character can occupy that position.
%%
One to eight percent signs can be specified in each qualifier.
Note:
This action is only available if the z/OS connection has been established and the remote repository is active.
