<h1 class="topictitle1">Compare and update system values</h1>
<div><p>Use iSeries™ Navigator
to compare and update your system values across multiple systems in your network. </p>
<div class="section"><p>As an administrator, you can manage system values across multiple
systems. You can compare the system values on a model system to one or more
target systems and then update the target system values to match the values
of the model system. If you prefer, you can generate a list that shows the
differences in values between the model system and the target system rather
than actually changing the values on the target system.</p>
<p>Be sure you
have current system value inventories on your target systems. It is possible
to have your model system be a target system if you have collected inventory
for the model system. You can also export any system values inventory to a
PC file. These PC files provide a history of the inventory and allow you to
work with the data in a spreadsheet program or other application.</p>
<p>To
compare and update your system values, follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>In iSeries Navigator,
expand <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Management Central</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Endpoint
Systems</span></span>, <span class="uicontrol">System Groups</span>, or
<span class="uicontrol">My Connections</span>.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Right-click an endpoint system or a system group that you want
to be your target system, select <span class="uicontrol">System Values</span>, and
then select <span class="uicontrol">Compare and Update</span>.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Complete the fields on the <span class="uicontrol">Compare and Update</span> menu.</span> <ul><li>Select the name of the model system against which you want to compare
the target system or systems.</li>
<li>Select the categories and values that you want to include in the compare.
For each system value that you want to update on the target system, select
that item from the <span class="uicontrol">Update</span> column.</li>
<li>Verify the target system or systems that are selected.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">OK</span> to perform the task immediately
or click <span class="uicontrol">Schedule</span> to run the task at a later time.</span></li>
