Step 1.10 – Copy Elements into Site Libraries

During the original installation, certain libraries may have been copied to libraries outside the IOA libraries and afterwards modified locally. In this step, the locally modified libraries are identified, so they can be first backed up. (Otherwise the new members in these libraries will overwrite the modified members.) When the job is run, the selected elements are copied to the site libraries. After the job has completed successfully, the local modifications must be reapplied to these members.

PROCJCL elements may be brought in an ad hoc cycle. Previously, members of the PROCJCL library may have been copied by the installation jobs to a library specified by the PROCLIB installation parameter.

If any PROCJCL members for the installed products are replaced by the ad hoc cycle, they may be listed using the L option, and selected to be recopied using the S options. If any of the selected members had local modifications in the site library, back them up first, before submitting the job, and re-work the changes after this step is completed.

  1. Select Minor Step 10, Copy Elements into Site Libraries.

    If either the PROCLIB parameter is set to the default value (DONTCOPY, do not copy to a site library), or if no PROCJCL elements are replaced in this ad hoc cycle, for the products installed, an appropriate message is issued, and the step marked COMPLETE. Continue with Step 1.11 – Post APPLY Exception Handling.

  2. Enter L in the S column in the row with the Copy selected elements description, to list the elements to be copied.

    A panel opens with a table listing the elements and copy data. For assistance in deciding with elements to copy, use the following commands:

    B - to view the new version of the element

    V - to read the PTF description

    Note: The V option is not active after the PTFs for the upgrade have been ACCEPTed.

  3. Enter S in the O column next to the elements that you decide to copy and press PF3 (END) to close the panel.

    Note: If any of these elements have local modifications, back them up now, and reapply the modifications to the new copies after the job has completed.

  4. Submit the job.
  5. When the job has completed, examine the status. If the job did not complete successfully, use B to browse the log for more details.
  6. Press PF3 (END) to return to the Minor Steps Selection panel.
