CA Support Online has maintenance and HOLDDATA published since the installation data was created. After the maintenance process completes, the product is ready to deploy.

Follow these steps:

  1. Check CA Support Online and download any PTFs and HOLDDATA published since this release was created. If the base release was created recently, no PTFs or HOLDATA will have been published yet.
  2. Transfer the downloaded files to two separate FB 80 sequential data sets. Use one data set to contain the PTFs and the other to contain the HOLDDATA.

    The PTFs and HOLDDATA become accessible to the yourHLQ.SAMPJCL maintenance members.

  3. The [assign the value for hlq in your book]SEDIT macro was customized in the installation steps. Verify that you still have the values from the base installation.
  4. Open the SAMPJCL member [assign the value for hlq in your book]6RECP in an edit session and execute the [assign the value for hlq in your book]SEDIT macro from the command line.

    [assign the value for hlq in your book]6RECP is customized with your JOB statement, CSI location, and zone names.

  5. Customize the [assign the value for hlq in your book]6RECP SMPPTFIN and SMPHOLD DD statements to reference the FB 80 data sets for the PTFs and HOLDDATA.
