Dave,
So, if you get RC=8, you run the Apply anyway, just letting SMP/e determine
what PTFs can be applied, correct? If that is the case, that would simplify
the SMP/e apply process.
Thanks,
Jerry

I do not attempt to get a RC0 or RC4 apply. What goes on goes on. Obviously
review results to make sure that there wasn't an issue, but coding up a bunch
of excludes to not select those with holderror just to get a RC0 is not
necessary in my opinion.
Here is one apply example
APPLY CHECK
SOURCEID (
SYSPLXDS
XSYSTEM
HIPER
IBM.*
RSU*
SECINT
)
GROUPEXTEND
(
NOAPARS
NOUSERMODS
)
BYPASS ( HOLDSYSTEM)
NOJCLINREPORT
RETRY ( YES )
.

**CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL**

Hello everyone,
I am looking for SMP/e methodologies about a couple of situations within SMP/e.
Just looking for how people do SMP/e maintenance in certain situations.
1) What methodology is employed to get to a clean Apply Check, when you
outstanding Error Holds? APARs without PTFs, local fix or work arounds?
2) For Apply check, what PARMs do you use? Select, FixCat, Bypass, etc?
I was taught a SMP/e methodology, many years ago, but just wondering if there
might be a better way.
Thanks,
Jerry Edgington
