Local fix

  • Action Required:
    To identify the PTFs for which MCS entry is missing in order's
    SMPPTS data set, run the following SMP/E report:
    //SMPCNTL  DD *
    
     SET BDY(GLOBAL) .
    
     REPORT SOURCEID
    
     ZONES(GLOBAL) SYSMODIDS .
    
    /*
    
    Look for list of PTFs under SOURCEID name starting with char
    'RY'. For these PTFs, run the following SMP/E LIST command:
    //SMPCNTL  DD *
    
     SET BDY(GLOBAL) .
    
     LIST SYSMOD
    
     (
    
     ptf1
    
     ptf2
    
     ...
     ...
     ...
     ptfn
    
     )
    
     ALLZONES .
    
    /*
    
    The PTFs that are in REC status in GLOBAL zone and are not
    SUPERSEDED in Target or DLIB zones need to be received again by
    running following SMP/E command:
    //SMPCNTL  DD *
    
     SET BDY(GLOBAL) .
    
     RECEIVE ORDER(
               CONTENT(
                 PTFS(ptf1, ptf2, )
                      )) .
    /*
