DBAMNU

  Invokes the SysWorks Database Tools menu which may be
  used to manage the day to day operations of a database and
  changes to its configuration.
  Within this menu, the following items are provided or sup-
  ported:

  .
        A command requests the menu to build and/or execute
        a job in a certain fashion. Examples of commands are
        EXECUTE and SUBMIT.
  .
        A job is a sequence of one or more user selected tasks .
        Jobs do not have names, rather they are initiated using
        a command . The command will request a list of tasks
        which make up the job.
  .
        A parameter is a named value used to control the ac-
        tions performed by steps . Parameters are represented
        by DCL symbols. As parameters are defined by com-
        mands asking the user questions, the answers are saved
        in global symbols so that subsequent commands use the
        previous answers as their defaults. When the SUBMIT
        command is used, each parameters is also defined as a
        symbol in a temporary command file which is used to
        feed the parameters to the submitted batch job.
  .
        A step is a simple operation which can be performed
        for a database. Examples of steps include CLOSE,
        JOURNALS and OPEN.
  .
        A task is a sequence of one or more predefined steps . An
        example of a single step task is CLOSE. An example of a
        multi-step task is IMPORT which includes the CLOSE,
        DROP, IMPORT and JOURNALS steps.

  Note that many steps are also defined as tasks, and where
  such a relationship exists, the step and task have the same
  name, although a task may well execute other steps in ad-
  dition to its named equivalent step (see the IMPORT task
  example above).
