Issue/Introduction

CSM provides the option of generating flatfiles of maintenance that can then be used to apply the maintenance using traditional SMP/E JCL.

It produces two files, one containing the PTFs and a second file containing the HOLDDATA.

Is there sample JCL that shows how to use these two files generated by CSM to RECEIVE and APPLY CHECK the maintenance? 

Environment

Release : 15.1

Component : CA Datacom/AD

Resolution

Below is a sample of the JCL that you can use to RECEIVE and APPLY CHECK the maintenance using the two files generated by MSM. Please note the following is an example of APPLY CHECK. To APPLY the maintenance change APPLY CHECK to APPLY.

//RECEIVE  EXEC PGM=GIMSMP,REGION=0M
