Note: You must select this option for a DELTA List that is defined as Dependent to execute in the fashion Dependent implies.
Option 'One element at a time', instructs BMC AMI Change Manager for IMS TM to execute the DELTA List sequentially, one element at a time. This mode is much slower than Optimize execution mode. However, there are certain occasions when one element at a time is desirable. For example, transactions T1, T2 and T3 all require the MAXRGN parameter be changed from 3 to 4. Since they must be stopped before they can be revised, you want them stopped for the shortest amount of time possible. With Optimized mode, ALL the /STOP commands are done BEFORE the DELTA revise is done, and ALL the /START commands are done AFTER the revise is done. Using 'One element at a time' mode, the /STOP is done for T1, T1 is revised, then the /START command for T1 is issued before any activity takes place for T2 or T3.
This mode contains suboption Pause after elements with errors which instructs BMC AMI Change Manager for IMS TM to stop the DELTA List execution when an error is encountered. For additional information on the Pause option, place the cursor on the phrase highlighted above, and press HELP (F1).
