Issue/Introduction

The CA 7 initialization deck specifies (APPLCTN,NAME=SASSXX02,ATTR=PERM). Is there a way to dynamically refresh the SASSXX02 exit in CA-7 without recycling the CA7ONL address space?

Resolution

The /RELINK command dynamically loads a new copy of a CA 7 module without having to recycle CA 7 but, cannot be use for a PERM or RESD module, the logon exit module, or a module included in the link edit of UCC7.   The ATTR=PERM is used if the size of the exit modules exceeds 32 KB.  In this case, since SASSXX02 has been defined with attribute of PERM, CA 7 will have to be recycled to load the new copy of the module.
