Change management services

Change management services control the availability of operations used to work on internal code change levels stored on the &console; hard disk.

Change management services are either enabled or disabled, depending on the status of internal code fixes stored on the &console; hard disk.

Enabled
Indicates you can work on internal code change levels stored on the hard disk. The required operations are available.
Disabled
Indicates you cannot work on internal code change levels stored on the hard disk. The required operations are not available.

The services become disabled to prevent the use of an internal code change level that differs, in any way, from the change level provided by the IBM Support Center.

Internal code change levels may be altered unintentionally by errors that occur while copying them. For example, change levels may not be copied correctly from a diskette to the &console; hard disk.

Internal code change levels can be altered intentionally when you use the Analyze Internal Code Change window to activate a temporary internal code fix, or to activate individual fixes from a change level.

Note: If change management services are disabled, contact your IBM Service Support Center for instructions before using the Analyze Internal Code Changes task or the Change Internal Code task.
