D.2 Receiving a New PSP Distribution


Maintenance that is delivered in PSP format includes a
directory entry named ##MIT in the sharedprefix.MICS.PSP.CNTL
data set.

Each time you invoke PSP Online, the dialog checks for the
presence of this member.  If it is found, PSP Online
automatically triggers the Receive New PSP Tables dialog (PSP
option 4.1) to incorporate the new PSP distribution
information into your PSP Online system.  The dialog deletes
the ##MIT directory entry after the Record and Receive
dialogs are completed to indicate that the distribution has
been processed and places you at the PSP Online main menu.

When you install a new PSP distribution in PSP format, PSP
Online is updated with information by the following steps:

   1.  Activate the CA MICS Workstation Facility (MWF) by
       executing the CLIST or TSO LOGON PROC you coded for
       MWF.

   2.  Select the CA MICS Administrator Facility (MAF) option
       from the MWF menu.  From CA MICS Administrator
       Facility menu, select the PSP Online Services option.

   3.  The Receive New PSP Tables panel will be displayed
       automatically.

   4.  Allow the Receive New PSP Tables dialog to complete
       before signing off.

       Note: This step may run for a long time.
