I want to agree with Barb, the PTF for my 2.3 system had PRE APPLY
action to run the "UTILITY"
Pointing to a SMPTLIB that never gets created, I did found the 'UTILITY'
in SYS1.SAMPLIB, so this left me scratching my head and wondering.
As I mentioned, I opted to perform the actions by hand, but I have to
question, if this PTF had a PRE-APPLY action, how was I suppose to run
this? were the required members there, just waiting for me to execute at
some time in the future?
why not just make the action (MKDIR) part of the BPX script for the PTF?
//IKJEFT1A EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1A
//SYSEXEC DD DISP=SHR,
// DSN=dsprefix.HDZ2230.F1
//*
//*SYSEXEC DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=ttttt2,DISP=SHR,
//* DSN=SYS1.SAMPLIB
//*
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *

No, I think it's just a totally screwed up ptf.
/usr/lpp/dfsms/hsm/config/

/usr/lpp/dfsms/dss/IBM/
From the path names I am guessing that it is the same ptf that I have a PMR
open with IBM. I never installed it into 2.3, assuming it would be correct in
2.5. Well, I ordered 2.5 in early October, and the ptf still would not go in
because it was missing the DDDEF statement to these pathes. IBM corrected that
sometime in November for the serverpac, which was too late for me. Strangely
enough, the pathes were already there (probably due to another error).
The DDDEFs come in another ptf and you are required to put them in manually.
Unfortunately, they don't contain a statement for the DLIB zone. That's what my
PMR is all about. Where will the thing get accepted to? Has anyone (who has
already applied the ptf) tried an accept check on it? I asked IBM where it will
get accepted, and I haven't gotten an answer for over a month now. So far I
haven't installed the ptf.
