SMP/E error "++VER NOT APPLICABLE" receiving CICS compatibility PTFs on Datacom/AD

Issue/Introduction

Receiving PTFs for FMID CAVQF15 (IPC 15.1 CICS modules) in a Datacom/AD 15.1 SMP/E environment fails with the error:

++VER NOT APPLICABLE.

Environment

Datacom/AD 15.1

Cause

FMID CAVQF15 is the IPC 15.1 CICS modules FMID. Datacom/AD 15.1 does not contain a CICS interface and therefore does not include or require IPC/CICS FMIDs.

This error occurs because the PTF package is intended for a CICS-enabled environment, which is not applicable to the base Datacom/AD product.

Resolution

1. Review the Readme for Datacom/AD 15.1 documentation to confirm the required FMIDs for your installation.
2. If you suspect an FMID is incorrectly installed or missing, run the following JCL to list all functions currently in your CSI:
   //LIST EXEC PGM=GIMSMP,PARM='DATE=U',REGION=0M
//SMPCSI DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.Datacom.AD.CSI
//* LIST ALL THE FUNCTIONS IN THE CSI
//SMPCNTL DD
SET BOUNDARY (CAIT0).
LIST SYSMODS FUNCTIONS.
/*
3. If the FMID CAVQF15 is not present in the list, the PTF is not applicable to your environment and can be safely ignored.
