I notice my CPLOAD $NUCEXEC (See below)  with a current Date/Time stamp 
shows:

00184   &1 &2 &3 HCPCPE TXTRSU05 

Trying to find where HCPCPE TXTRSU05 is and what it contains.

 
I did 3 P2Ps so all 3 CF's have been updated:

These CF's are from the Level 1 DDR of 540RES.
I have not changed them since.

Re: RSU or PSU?






George,

If you LINK and ACCESS each of your CF1, CF2, and CF3 disks on 54XRES, and 

issue: LISTFILE * MODULE * (ISO
What response do you get?  If you see the CPLOAD MODULE with the same date 

and time as the IPL message, but still SLU 0802 it may shed more light on 
this situation.

And for each CF1, CF2, and CF3 disk, what do you get from: CP QUERY MDISK 
CFx LOCation

Re: RSU or PSU?







Thank you very much, Alan. 

I really did everything by the book, RC=0 on everything including the 
PSPs. 

I just do not understand why CP still says 0802 for my CPLEVEL. 

I looked at $VMFP2P $MSGLOG and $VMFSRV $MSGLOG and everything looks good. 



It does not seem that SES even tried to update the CPLEVEL on HCPCPE AUXVM 



The IPL shows the old Service Level but the current date/time stamp. 

                19:09:15 z/VM  V5 R4.0  SERVICE LEVEL 0802 (64-BIT) 

        19:09:16 SYSTEM NUCLEUS CREATED ON 2010-10-14 AT 12:05:41, LOADED 
FROM 54XRES 

It is the same whether I IPL from CF1 or CF2, but CF3 shows the 2 year old 

version. 

I did run Service and P2P 3 times once for the RSU, once for the COR for 
the 3 z196 compatibility APARs, and finally once again for the PSPs. 

I did IPL between the 3 Service sessions. 

SERVICE ALL STATUS shows these APARs were applied, built, and PUT2PROD.

But that is no assurance that I am running with them. 

PTFs did get applied and I do see the correct SES envelop fn's in $MSGLOG, 

so I know I did not just rerun with the old SERVLINK. 
Is there anyway of mapping CPLOAD so I can be sure that I will really be 
IPLing with these APARs when the z196 arrives?.

"PSU" is a *procedure* that you use to apply the Recommended Service 
Upgrade (RSU).  See Chapter 2 of the Service Guide.  (IMO, it doesn't 
deserve an abbreviation.)

The term "stacked RSU" is historical.  Back in VM/ESA Version 2 the RSU 
for each component (CP, CMS, TCP/IP, etc.) was orderable separately in 
addition to a "stacked" RSU that contained all of the most recent 
component RSUs.  In z/VM V3, individual component RSUs were dropped, but 
the "stacked" moniker persisted.

My friends in Development will take it under advisement that perhaps it is 


time to retire the term "stacked" as it adds no value.  "RSU" and "stacked 


RSU" are the same thing now days.   As a reminder, 
http://www.vm.ibm.com/service/rsu/ is your friend.
