Processing other utility steps

When SMP/E encounters an EXEC statement that does not specify one of the programs or cataloged procedures it recognizes, it skips all further JCL statements until the next EXEC statement is found. Input for certain system utility programs is not meant to be processed as JCLIN. However, the utility must be defined to SMP/E if it falls into any of these categories:

• Assembler
• Link-edit utility
• Copy
• Update
