Back Out Maintenance from CA CSM

You can back out applied (but not accepted) maintenance from CA CSM. When you back out CA CSM maintenance, you first use the CA CSM Restore action to update the SMP/E target libraries and USS paths. Then, stop CA CSM and submit the MSMDEPLY job to update the runtime libraries and USS paths. Those updates take effect when you restart CA CSM.

Follow these steps:

  1. Back out the maintenance using the Restore action.

    The contents of the SMP/E target libraries and USS paths for CA CSM are updated. These libraries and paths are set up using the TargetHLQ and MSMPATH keywords in the MSMSetupOptionsFile.properties options file.

    Note: For more information about backing out maintenance, see the online help.

  2. Stop CA CSM.

    CA CSM stops operation.

  3. Deploy the contents of the updated SMP/E target libraries and USS paths to the CA CSM runtime libraries and USS paths. The libraries and USS paths are set up using the RunTimeMVSHLQPrefix and RunTimeUSSPath keywords in the MSMSetupOptionsFile.properties options file.
    1. Customize the JCL(MSMDEPLY) job. Update the JOB statement, and specify backout for arg1.
    2. Submit the job.
  4. Start CA CSM.

    CA CSM becomes operational without the maintenance.
