Memorize Captured Transaction
How to Get There
On the Main Menu, select option 10. Then, in the Work with Captured Transactions panel, enter a 1 in the Opt column next to the transaction you want to memorize and press Enter.
What it Does
The Memorize Captured Transaction panel enables you to memorize a captured transaction and specify the Authority that should be used whenever this transaction is processed in the future.
Field Descriptions
Server
A Server in Exit Point Manager is a controlled entry point into your system. These entry points are determined and defined by IBM. Exit Point Manager has assigned easy-to-remember names to these controlled entry points.
Function
A Function, or Server Function, in Exit Point Manager represents a class of operations that a given Server may perform. For example, the *SIGNON Server classifies its operations as those pertaining to changing passwords, generating authentication tokens, and retrieving sign-on information. Exit Point Manager has assigned easy-to-remember names to these Functions, such as CHGPWD, GENAUTTKN and RETRIEVE.
User Type (USERTYPE)
Specifies whether the user field is a user profile or a Exit Point Manager User Group.
Allowed values are:
User
If the associated User Type is a 'U', User represents the identity of the person initiating a transaction as a user profile.
The special value *PUBLIC, when used on a rule, means that the rule applies to any User lacking a specific rule. When used as a subset or selection parameter, *PUBLIC means to select all such rules for display or printing.
If the associated User Type is a 'G', User represents a Exit Point Manager User Group.
Location
Location represents the source of a transaction. Location can hold an IP Address, an IP Address Group or the name of an SNA Communications Device.
The special value *ALL, when used on a rule, means that the rule applies to any Location lacking a specific rule. When used as a subset or selection parameter, *ALL generally means to select all such rules for display or printing. Specify the Location to which this rule applies. Special values are:
Authority
Authority represents the action to be taken when a rule is found that matches the data present on a transaction. Specify the Authority value for the rule. You can press F4 to see a list of valid values that can be specified. The list of valid values may include one or more of these values:
Audit Transactions
The Audit transactions flag controls the logging of transactions to the Log Journal set up on the Work with Exit Point Manager System Values panel.
Specify one of these values for Audit transactions:
Send messages
The Send messages flag controls the sending of messages to the Log Message Queue set up on the work with Exit Point Manager System Values panel.
Specify one of these values for Send messages:
Capture Transactions
The Capture transactions flag controls whether transactions are remembered in Exit Point Manager for later memorization. Once captured, transactions can become Memorized Transactions which can act as rules.
Specify one of these values for Capture transactions:
Switch profile
The Switch profile holds the name of a user profile whose authority is used to process the transaction instead of the authority of the User initiating the transaction. The transaction is executed as, and uses the authority of, this Switch profile.
The job that processes the transaction continues to run under this switch profile until Exit Point Manager processes another transaction request for that job.
Switch profile is allowed only when Authority contains *SWITCH or *MEMSWITCH, if *MEMSWITCH is allowed. Otherwise it must contain *NONE.
Specify the new Switch profile value or one of these special values:
Transaction
This is the data handed to Exit Point Manager by the operating system. Much of this transaction data is binary in nature and may not be human—readable. Undisplayable characters in the transaction data are replaced by the mid—dot character (-). You can use the Transaction wildcard character (%) to make a Transaction generic. The wildcard character is valid only at the end of a Transaction string. when you are memorizing or changing a Memorized Transaction, the first occurrence of the wildcard character that was NOT present in the string before you changed it will make the string generic and all data after that wildcard character will be discarded.
