If using SMP/E to do the install, there are 2 functions that can be chosen. One of the functions simply creates the alias's for IEBGENER, etc. We will use the IBM supplied IEBGENR alias to get back to the real IEBGENER. Using this function, we will not link IEBGENER into SYNCGENR. The other method does the linking of the modules together. We offer both methods because different sites prefer different methods. There are some sites that prefer not to replace IEBGENER with SYNCGENR. This is the reason for there to be a function to begin with.

Once SYNCGENR/ICEGENER has been set up to replace IEBGENER everything else should be automatic. The Installation Guide details what needs to be done for SyncSort. I assume the steps are very similar for DFSORT. The amount of effort to do this is trivial. > Even more trivial than it used to be since IBM added an alias of IEBGENR to IEBGENER some time ago and made the default "GENER" parm (which specifies the "OLDGENER" name) IEBGENR. I can't recall when that happened (OS/390 2.10... or z/OS ?) SYNCSORT could use the same method DFSORT uses and eliminate the need for the function/usermod that links IEBGENER into SYNCGENR.
