Installing Your Product from Tape › Apply Maintenance › HOLDDATA

HOLDDATA

When you apply maintenance, you typically encounter SMP/E HOLDDATA. We use HOLDDATA to notify your SMP/E system of SYSMODs that have errors or special conditions. We support system and external HOLDDATA.

Maintenance for Other CA Products

You must apply maintenance to CA 1 and CA TLMS to enable communication between the tape management system and CA Tape Encryption.

Important! CA Tape Encryption will not function without this maintenance.

If you are using the CA Tape Encryption SAF Interface and you use CA ACF2 or CA Top Secret you must apply the appropriate product maintenance to provide this support.

For more information, see the cover letter for the exact PTFs that must be applied for each product.

If you have IBM DFSMSrmm, obtain maintenance from IBM that enables the DFSMSrmm CDS BESKEY index to identify tapes encrypted by CA Tape Encryption.

Note: When you have completed the procedures in this section, go to Configuring Your Product.
