3.2 Applying Product Changes


To apply selected product changes:

1.  Select the PSP Online option Apply Product Changes
    (MWF;5;2;2). The Select Product Changes for Apply panel
    appears.  Review the product changes you selected.
    Selected changes may be reset or additional changes may
    be selected.  When your review is complete, enter the END
    command.

2.  The Sorted Change List is displayed.  Enter the END
    command to print the product change installation
    checklists.  The Apply Product Changes menu is then
    displayed.

3.  Select the Generate Apply Job option on the Apply Product
    Changes menu to prepare product change JCL.  Review the
    generated JCL and make necessary changes, such as to JOB
    statement parameters.  END to submit the job.

4.  Examine the submitted product change update job for
    successful completion.  Then continue the product change
    installation by following the instructions in the product
    change installation checklist.

    Note: The APPLY job stream may perform only some of the
    steps in applying a product change.  Therefore, it is
    important that you print the installation checklist and
    follow each step listed.

    If a product change APPLY job fails with a JCL error or
    completes abnormally, product changes will display a
    status of A or APPLYING on the Select Product Changes for
    Apply panel.  In this situation, you will have to issue
    the RESET line command to reset each product change back
    to a status of S or SELECTED, press the END command, and
    resubmit the APPLY job stream.
