About Staging Components

When a like-source component is staged, a compile procedure skeleton is file tailored and a batch job is submitted to transform the source into the like-load component type specified in application library types for the source type.

When a like-other component of type ttt is staged, a compile procedure skeleton named CMN$$ttt is file tailored and a batch job is submitted. Your ChangeMan ZMF installer or administrator defines the build job steps and processes in the like-other skeleton.

When a like-PDS component is staged, there is no transform processing.

Depending on the restrictions established by your administrator, you may also use the stage function to:

  • Copy a component into your change package instead of using checkout.

  • Add a new component directly to a staging library from an edit session.

  • Mass stage multiple components into your change package.
