Creating missing resources during the life of the plan

HCL Workload Automation for Z distinguishes between these two cases:
  1. An operation or event refers to a resource that is in the database but is not in the current plan. See Dynamically copying resources from the database.
  2. An operation or event refers to a resource that is neither in the database nor in the current plan. See Dynamically adding resources that are not in the database.
