How can I start CA TPX with an alternate SMRT or SAMT without changing the PROC?

Environment

CA TPX for z/OS

Resolution

You can start the CA TPX task with parms to override any of the parameters defined in the TPX PROC such as SMRT=xxx,SAMT=xxx: 

S TPX,SMRT=SMRTSAF,SAMT=SAF 

This saves having to RELOAD in TPXOPER, especially since some SMRT parameters cannot be reloaded.
