27.7 Generating and executing plans in the preview view

The preview view allows you to generate different system plans automatically based on three things:

• The current compilation and load status of each member of a system.
• The rules specified in the system definition.
• The specific actions that you wish to perform.

You can use this view to browse the plan and to execute all or any part of it, as well as generate it.

Click on the Preview tab to switch to the preview view in the System Browser. The System Browser appears.
