RELOAD=modname Command-Reload Global Modules

Use the RELOAD=modname command to reload global modules shared by all BES subsystems when instructed to do so by Technical Support. This command reloads the specified routine from the STEPLIB defined to the BES task that the command is issued against. If no STEPLIB is defined to the task, the module is loaded from the CA Tape Encryption load library in the linklist.

Important! Use caution when issuing this command. It impacts every BES task on the system where you issue it. The best practice is to test new versions of the specified module on a separate test system.

Note: For information about test systems, see Recommendations for Test Environments.

This command has the following format:

BESn RELOAD=modname

n

Indicates the BES task number.

modname

Specifies the global routine to reload. Options for this parameter are as follows:

TBEDDT

Loads a new interface routine to the IBM Device Descriptor Table control block.

TBECONCT

Loads a new Unit Control block for Encryption (UCE) connect routine.

TBEKAPI

Loads a new copy of the TBEKAPI callable service routine for the Option for Application Management.

TBEKYNDX

Loads a new Key Index processing routine.

ZSAMINFO

CA Compress API to prevent double compression from CA Tape Encryption.

Limits: If you are using your security system to control access to commands, all forms of this command can be controlled by a command protection profile.

Example: RELOAD=modname command

This example loads a new UCE connect routine from the STEPLIB for task BES1.

BES1 RELOAD=TBECONCT

Note: For information about reloading the open, close, and end-of-volume routines using the RELOAD=TEP command, see RELOAD=TEP Command-Reload TBETEP Global Module.
