Will the F PDSMAN,NEWRULES command impact jobs that have allocated other PDS libraries already covered by existing $UPDATE LIB= parameters?

Products

• PDSMAN

Issue/Introduction

When implementing a new version of PDSMINIT, the only changes will be to add additional libraries with the $UPDATE LIB= parameter. No other PDSMINIT parameters would change. 

When the F PDSMAN,NEWRULES command is issued, will this impact jobs that have allocated other PDS libraries already covered by existing $UPDATE LIB= parameters? 

 

 

Environment

Release: PDSMAN PDS Library Management 7.7

Resolution

If the new $UPDATE rules specify fully qualified data set names and those names can not match any existing $UPDATE rule, then the NEWRULES command can not impact any existing library already covered by existing $UPDATE rules.
