Information on Beta SMP/E packages (Option R.P)

Option R.P

You can use option R.P to display information on Beta Systems SMP/E packages. You can also display the contents of SMP/E packages and verify their correct installation.

SMP/E packages

There are two kinds of SMP/E packages:

  • User packages (package name starts with a U)
  • Consolidated service packages (package name starts with an X)

Fields

Field

Description

Package Name or Mask

Package name

Masks are allowed. You can use ? (= any single character) in any position and * (= any sequence of characters) in trailing position. For example:

U??61* selects all user packages of V6R1
X??61* selects all service packages of V6R1

Search Destination

Specify where you want to look for SMP/E packages. By default, the information is retrieved from the started task of the current target subsystem (STC).

Online

Scanning the current TSO user session in the order of the user's library concatenation.

STC

Scanning the library concatenation of the started task.

VDF

Scanning the library concatenations of the load modules and the online components of the VDF started task; the request is sent to the VDF started task with the ssid specified in the VDF Subsystem ID field.

Note: Do not choose Search Destination = Online if you are in split screen with a different Beta product.

Search LNKLST/LPA

YES includes the linklist and LPA libraries in the search; the default is NO.

Warning: Including the linklist and LPA libraries in the scanning is likely to take a considerable amount of time. It may also lead to security violations at some sites. YES will therefore lead to the display of an additional panel for manual confirmation.

VDF Subsystem ID

If Search Destination = VDF:

Subsystem ID of the VDF started task whose libraries are to be scanned. You can specify a mask and select the desired system from the table of matching entries.

Status verification

The status of load modules, panels, messages, and skeletons is checked if the search destination is Online or VDF. Only load modules are checked if the search destination is STC. PTFs of type SAMPLE and CLIST are never checked.

The contents of the selected user packages is verified automatically before they are displayed in the "Beta SMP/E Package Information" table. The contents of a service package is only verified when you select it with line command S in this table. Line command B displays the contents of a package without status verification.
