Can I put non-policy statements in my HZSPRMxx member?

Do not put non-policy statements in HZSPRMxx. Your HZSPRMxx member should include only:
  • POLICY statements
  • LOGGER statement
  • HZSPDATA statement
  • WHEN statements
  • ADD | ADDREPLACE CHECK statements.

The system applies non-policy statements, such as UPDATE, ADDNEW, or DISPLAY, just once and only to currently active checks. This means that including non-policy statements in your HZSPRMxx member is ineffective. Any non-policy statements that you put in your HZSPRMxx member are not part of your IBM® Health Checker for z/OS® policy.
