View/DRAS & Spool CSARLOAD Libraries.

Products

• OM View
• OM Spool

Issue/Introduction

Is it OK to distribute the same TPV.CSARLOAD dataset with View/DRAS 12.2 and also Spool 12.0 install? If the maintenance applies to View/DRAS 12.2, should the corresponding maintenance also apply to Spool 12.0?

Environment

View - 12.0 and higher

Resolution

A member-by-member comparison of the View/DRAS TPV.CSARLOAD and Spool TPV.CSARLOAD libraries show them to be exactly the same.

If View/DRAS and Spool are in separate SMPCSIs, then there is the need to apply the corresponding maintenance to both of the libraries. The reason to do the maintenance to both (or other) libraries is because it would not be immediately known as to which library comes where in the linklist.

Need to ensure that all affected libraries would contain their corresponding maintenance, so that there is not the chance that any of the Modules used would be back-leveled modules.
