Special Instructions


If this PTF is applied or removed as a "Delayed" PTF, which
requires an IPL, no special consideration is necessary. If
this PTF is applied or removed "Immediate", you must first
end all of the PSF writers or end the QSPL subsystem.
When the writers are started again, the PTF code will be active.

********************************************************************
THE FOLLOWING ARE SUPERSEDED SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS. IF THE SUPERSEDED
PTF HAS ALREADY BEEN APPLIED AND ITS SPECIAL INSTRUCTION FOLLOWED,
IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO FOLLOW THAT SPECIAL INSTRUCTION AGAIN.
********************************************************************

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUPERSEDED PTF SI50181 :
=================================================

When performing the AFP respool function PSF will copy the User Defined
Option (USRDFNOPT) spooled file attribute from the original spooled
file to the new AFP spooled file. If the original spooled file is split
into multiple respooled files, then each of the respooled files will
contain the USRDFNOPT spooled file attribute of the original spooled
file.

If you have a need to prevent User Defined Options from being copied by
PSF/400 to the respooled files you can do so in a way that is
system-wide. Enter the command shown below.

CRTDTAARA DTAARA(QUSRSYS/QPSFVALS) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(3) VALUE('NNN')
AUT(*USE)

PSF/400 examines the third character of the data area to determine if
USRDFNOPT  should be copied. If the value of the third character is 'N"
then USRDFNOPT is not copied. If the value is 'Y', any other character
or the data area does not exist, then PSF will copy USRDFNTOPT.


If you are currently using the QUSRSYS/QPSFVALS data area for another
PSF function and wish to turn off the copying of USRDFNOPT, you may do
so as follows:

CHGDTAARA DTAARA(QUSRSYS/QPSFVALS (3 1)) VALUE(N)

If you wish to turn on the copying of USRDFNOPT use the following
command:

CHGDTAARA DTAARA(QUSRSYS/QPSFVALS (3 1)) VALUE(Y)

If this PTF is applied or removed as a "Delayed" PTF, which requires
an IPL, no special consideration is necessary. If  this PTF is applied
or removed "Immediate", you must first end all of the PSF writers or
end the QSPL subsystem. When the writers are started again, the PTF
code will be active.


Default Instructions

THIS PTF CAN BE APPLIED IMMEDIATE OR DELAYED.
