Installing IMS service on a single system

IMS service can be installed in several ways, including SMP/E methods.

The SMP/E methods to install service include:

  • RECEIVE/APPLY/ACCEPT (standard sequence)
  • ACCEPT without APPLY (pregeneration mode)
  • ACCEPT before APPLY (SYSDEF-sensitive service)
Important:
  • Do not ACCEPT APARs or USERMODs.
  • Before the installing service, ensure that you have read the latest HOLDDATA information.

If you have any questions about these processes, contact IBM® Software Support before you begin.
