Apr 30, 2021

To make OutBoard even more "intuitive", a special Nearline Storage Menu has been developed. This menu serves also as a substitute for the SE38 transaction code for running special OutBoard accelerators.

In this section:


Menu


The user can access this menu by entering the transaction /DVD/NLS_MENU or in OutBoard cockpit Run → Expert Tools. Tasks in the menu are divided into 5 main groups:


♦ Archive Maintenance
♦ HANA
♦ Mass archiving
♦ NLS Management
♦ NLS Lookup Tool Menu
♦ NLS Writer Analyser


These areas contain well-known reports for OutBoard users centrally with the documentation for every task.
