The lower half of the screen details the actions that will be taken by the batch job and the reasons that they will be taken. In this example it can be seen that:
- The RPG program I@CUSMST which is the I/O module for file CUSMST will be deleted first.
- Logical views CUSMSTV1 and CUSMSTV2, which are based on file CUSMST, will be deleted next.
- Physical file CUSMST will be deleted last. Note that this step deletes ALL the DATA in CUSMST as well.
