An interface for modifying the values of a business rule in the rule logic selection record.
Industry:Software
An interface for running QMF commands. The QMF commands can only be issued from within an active QMF session. See also callable interface.
Industry:Software
(1) An area in memory that typically stores information such as temporary register information, values of parameters, and return addresses of subroutines and is based on the principle of last in, first out (LIFO).<br />(2) An area of storage in which stack frames can be allocated.
Industry:Software
(1) In CoOperative Development Environment/400, a system object that contains and organizes source files. An i5/OS library or an MVS-partitioned data set are examples of a container.<br />(2) A software object that holds or organizes other software objects or entities.<br />(3) A data storage location: for example, a file, directory, or device. See also table space.<br />(4) An entity that provides life-cycle management, security, deployment, and runtime services to components. (Sun) See also resource adapter, connector.<br />(5) A column or row that is used to arrange the layout of a portlet or other container on a page.<br />(6) An instance that exists to contain other instances, and that provides operations to access or iterate its contents; for example, arrays, lists, or sets.<br />(7) In a virtual tape server (VTS), a receptacle in which one or more exported logical volumes (LVOLs) can be stored. A stacked volume containing one or more LVOLs and residing outside a VTS library is considered to be the container for those volumes. See also stacked volume.<br />(8) A group of stages and links in a job design.
Industry:Software
(1) In XSD, a business object attribute that defines an anonymous complex type instead of referencing a named complex type.<br />(2) A business object that is contained within other business objects. Private business objects are visible only to the containing business object, thereby making them private. See also business object.
Industry:Software
(1) An area into which a particular category of data or control information is entered.<br />(2) In object-oriented programming, an attribute or data member of a class.<br />(3) In a database, a portion (as defined during the database description generation process DBDGEN) within a segment that is the smallest unit of the data that can be referred to.
Industry:Software
(1) In cross-site mirroring, the configuration state of the mirror copy that does not attempt to perform geographic mirroring when the independent disk pool is available. The mirror copy state is suspended when it is not resuming or active.<br />(2) A state in which only one of the devices in a dual-copy or remote-copy volume pair is being updated as a result of a permanent error condition or an authorized user command. All writes to the remaining functional device are logged. Suspended state allows for automatic resynchronization of both volumes when the volume pair is reset to the active duplex state.
Industry:Software
(1) In z/OS and S/390 environments, a hardware- and software-based, remote-copy, service option that provides an asynchronous volume copy across storage subsystems for disaster recovery, device migration, and workload migration.<br />(2) A function of a storage server that assists a control program to maintain a consistent copy of a logical volume (LVOL) on another storage facility. All modifications of the primary LVOL volume by any attached host are presented in order to a single host. The host then makes these modifications on the secondary LVOL. See also remote copy.
Industry:Software
(1) An area of memory into which data pages are read and in which they are modified and held during processing. See also address space.<br />(2) An area of storage in which all buffers of a program are kept.<br />(3) A set of buffers that contains buffers of the same length.<br />(4) An area of main storage used for WebSphere MQ for z/OS queues, messages, and object definitions. See also page set.
Industry:Software
(1) In Cryptographic Support, a binary value that, in an exclusive-OR operation with a given binary value of the same length, produces a binary value of all ones.<br />(2) The value that can be added to the number to equal a given value.
