Question:  

I am installing ACF2 and running JCL member SAMPJCL(ACF4RECD). How do I find and download
the HOLDDATA for the SMPHOLD DD?

Answer:  

Sites can download the external HOLDDATA from http://ca.com/support to a DASD file, and allocate the file to the SMPHOLD DD statement. To take care of the external HOLDDATA, receive it into your SMP/E environment. SMP/E receives the HOLDDATA from CA-supplied jobs.

 

The following sample job can be run to download the hold data directly to a z/OS

dataset.
