    You can lock a fault entry to prevent it from being deleted from a history file. You can specify the number of days that the fault entry is to remain locked, or specify that the lock never expires (the fault entry is never deleted). You can highlight locked fault entries in the Fault Entry List display. The optional IDIXLOCK exit can control fault entry flag values across an installation.

Managed history files

The Managed History Files display lists history files that are currently managed by the IDIS subsystem.

History files that you have ALTER data set access to are shown in white. You can enter the S line command to select a history file. History files that you do not have ALTER data set access to are shown in blue, and do not have an input field for line commands.

You can select multiple history files using one of the following methods:

Use the SS line command to select the first and last in a block of history files.
Use a 'repeat line command' ( *c ). For example, enter *s to repeat the S command on subsequent lines until terminated by * or *s on the last line in the block.

Press F1 from the Managed History Files display for more information about how to select history files.

Selected history files are shown in the IDIS Subsystem Selected History Files display, where you can modify their status. For example, you can stop the IDIS subsystem managing history files for the purpose of reallocation or some other activity that requires exclusive access. You can also sort and filter the list of history files. For more information, see Selected history files.
