ZMF Server Functions

ChangeMan ZMF repository functions with potentially global scope can be requested at the ZMF server level after logon. Like the basic logon and logoff functions, they are invoked from the server’s contextual menu.

ZMF server context menu

The following ZMF functions are available at the ZMF server level:

  • Job List View - Displays a tab with a view of current jobs on the ZMF server. Job Name, Owner and ZMF Server can be changed to alter the view.

  • Impact Analysis — The Impact Analysis function identifies all the higher-level software components that will be affected by changes to one or more subordinate, reusable software modules (such as a subroutine). An impact analysis can span multiple applications. It is the inverse of the Component Bill of Materials function. See Component Impact Analysis for step-by-step instructions.

  • Component Bill of Materials — The Component Bill of Materials function identifies all the subordinate, reusable software modules (such as subroutines) referenced by one or more higher-level software components. A bill of materials query can span multiple applications. It is the inverse of the Impact Analysis function. See Component Bill of Materials for step-by-step instructions.

  • Query Component — The Query Component function lists information about selected components, which is displayed in the Query Component view. See Query Component Functionality.

  • Query Package — The Query Package function lists all change packages on the server that meet your search criteria. A package query can span multiple applications. See Querying Packages for step-by-step instructions.

  • Display Java/TLS Version — Displays version information about Java and TLS, including Java Version, Java Home, available TLS Protocols, and available TLS Cipher Suites.

  • Show Web Services Version — Displays the version of ZMF Web Services used by your web application server to connect to the selected ZMF server.

  • Properties — Displays server properties such as Name, Address, ZMF and XCH TCP/IP ports associated with the selected ZMF server. Refer to the ChangeMan ZMF for Eclipse Installation and Configuration document for more information.
