SMP/E V3.5 Advanced Function Hands-on Lab

Project and Program: MVS, MVS Core Technologies

Tags: Proceedings, SHARE in Anaheim 2011, 2011

SMP/E V3.5 became available 26 September 2008 as an IBM Program Product which can be installed on top of all supported z/OS releases, and as part of z/OS V1.10. SMP/E V3.5 simplifies the task of verifying that required software fixes for new hardware devices, toleration and coexistence of new software releases, and for enabling new functions are installed. IBM consolidates the lists of required fixes from PSP buckets and produces new Fix Category (FIXCAT) HOLDDATA to identify those fixes.

Come to this lab to learn how to upgrade to SMP/E V3.5, and use the new FIXCAT HOLDDATA. You will learn how to use the new SMP/E Explorer, and how to use the new SMP/E REPORT MISSINGFIX command. If you are tired of manually looking at PTFs in PSP buckets, this is something you must attend.
