PTF LU04116 - Instructions for allocation DDDEF CFF6TOMC missing from SMPHRPT

Products

• COMMON SERVICES FOR Z/OS

Issue/Introduction

The Apply Check of LU04116 fails because DDDEF CFF6TOMC is missing.

There are instructions (hold actions) which tell how it is to defined, however they are not included in the SMP/E HOLD report output (SMPHRPT).

Environment

Release : 15.0
Component : COMMON SERVICES FOR Z/OS

Cause

Certain BYPASSED HOLDDATA will no longer be reported during APPLY and ACCPET processing

Resolution

This is working as designed. This particular situation where the HOLD is BYPASSED will result in the HOLDDATA not being reported in SMPHRPT.

If an APPLY CHECK is run without the bypass, the related hold action would be found in SMPHRPT.

The following information was taken from IBM documentation...

• The Bypassed HOLD Reason Report for the APPLY and ACCEPT commands includes only bypassed HOLDDATA for SYSMODs that are applied or accepted successfully. Bypassed HOLDDATA for SYSMODs that fail command processing will no longer appear in the report.

Recommendation is to:

1. Review SMPHRPT output generated during SMP/E RECEIVE processing
2. Run initial APPLY CHECK without a BYPASS statement
