I have a client who is licensed for and has installed a particular IBM software product on z/OS. The product is out of marketing but still in service. They have all the actual product libraries but managed apparently to delete the SMP/E datasets some time ago. They now need to apply a set of PTFs but are of course unable to do so without the SMP/E datasets. They cannot re-order the product because it is out of marketing.
I am a self-confessed SMP/E ignoramus. Is there some way to readily create a minimal SMP/E environment that would be "good enough"? Is there a relatively easy way to apply PTFs outside of SMP/E? Yeah, I know the questions are kind of lame, but I am outside of my comfort zone here and trying to help someone solve a problem.
