The SMP/E Environments, Maintenance tab lists the software maintenance packages for the products in the selected environment. Within the environment, you can filter maintenance packages displayed on the Maintenance tab by zone and by function.
Note: If the SMP/E environment has pending installations, CA CSM displays a warning message. You cannot install any maintenance to a product that is partially installed until you complete the pending installation.
Additionally, you can filter the listed maintenance packages in the table by their CA RS level and by column. Use the Show drop-down list to filter the listed packages by their CA RS level. Select the Filter check box in the table header to enable column filters. Type in a filter text box or combo box or select an item from a filter drop-down list or combo box to define a filter. CA RS level, and column filters are applied automatically. You can apply multiple filters simultaneously.
Note: Clearing the Filter check box disables the column filters and refreshes the table. Reselecting the Filter check box enables the previously defined filters.

Note: As a best practice, CA CSM prevents you from accepting USERMODs. However, the GROUPEXTEND mode can install USERMODs if they are prerequisites for the maintenance package being installed, unless you enable the NOUSERMODS option.
Removes the software that is the subject of this maintenance package. If there is conflict between the package and the software it maintains, you can perform the REJECT process and then install the package.
Removes an applied maintenance package. You can select zones where the maintenance can be restored.
If you change an SMP/E environment outside CA CSM (for example, if you have not used CA CSM to install a USERMOD), you can add that USERMOD to the list. To do so, click the Update button. However, we recommend that you add a USERMOD to CA CSM first and then use CA CSM to install it.
Note: You can act on more than one package using the action links. You can select all listed packages using the check box in the header row.
