During this step you must review the exception situations relevant to this upgrade.
These are divided into two groups:
The following groups of items are displayed:
Review the list of Pre-APPLY exceptions relevant to your environment. These actions must be taken before running the SMP/E APPLY step in the Implementation major step. These actions should have been previously handled during the RECEIVE and Analyze step, and are included here again for review and additional confirmation.
This item lists the unresolved PTF in ERROR conditions that were identified and brought to your attention during the 'RECEIVE and Analyze Target Environment' step of this upgrade.
The PTF(s) listed are HELD for the ERROR Reason indicated, and the HOLD condition is NOT resolved in this upgrade. Refer to the description in Handling PE PTFs or to the log of the 'RECEIVE and Analyze Target Environment' step for instructions on how to proceed.
Note: If you mark this step Complete, and proceed with the APPLY step, these conditions will remain unresolved.
Review the list of Post APPLY exceptions relevant to your environment. You are being alerted to these now so that you will be aware of them and can plan for them. These activities must be done after the SMP/E APPLY during the Post APPLY Exception Handling step in the Post Implementation major step.
The 'Analyze Target Environment' step identified that new version(s) of exit samples, which are already implemented in your system, will be introduced by this upgrade.
This will not affect your system, but you should consider reinstalling these exit(s) in order to take advantage of the updates. At this point you are only alerted to this situation. The actions required to handle this will be described later in the documentation of step 2.6.
This item lists these user-exits.
The elements listed were previously installed or modified in this environment by a SMP/E USERMOD, and are being replaced in this upgrade, and so the modification made by the USERMOD is being regressed.
Before the upgrade implementation, back up the locally modified version.
Following the upgrade, review your modified version of the affected elements together with the new version introduced by this upgrade, and consider re-adapting and re-installing some of these USERMODS.
Note that there is a step in the 'Post APPLY Exception Handling' step of the Post Implementation section of the upgrade that reminds you regarding this activity.
Review and plan for the Post-upgrade activities listed in this item.
Note: When there are items in HOLD ERRORs, if you confirm and proceed with the APPLY step, the listed errors will remain unresolved.
