IBM z System z/OS (H21x) Updates

H210IPZ Release 7.4 Updates

Download the update file to your PC from the download link below. Upload the patch distribution file to z/OS as follows:

  1. Connect via FTP to your z/OS system.
  2. Change the directory to your desired high level qualifier:
    3. cd ‘high-level-qualifier’
  3. If necessary, change the location of your local directory to the location of the patch distribution file:
    4. lcd 'directory-name'
  4. Set the required attributes for the file:
    5. quote site lrecl=80 blksize=3120 recfm=fb prim=200 sec=100 tracks
  5. Transfer the distribution file in BIN mode:
    6. bin
put Ptchxxxx.xmit ptchxxxx.xmit
  6. Quit your FTP client
  7. Follow the specific instructions provided with the update.

Retrieve the update from https://ftp.netex.com/product_dl/public/netex/H210IPZ/7.4/Ptch6840.xmit. FTP the downloaded patch to z/OS. (Refer to "How do I obtain/install an update" above for further details.)

To apply the patch:

  1. Issue the TSO PROFILE PROMPT command to be sure prompting is allowed.
  2. Issue the TSO RECEIVE command against the patch distribution file that was uploaded as follows:
    3. RECEIVE INDSNAME(‘dsn’)

    where ‘dsn’ specifies the name of the distribution file that was FTP’d to z/OS. For example: 

    RECEIVE INDSNAME(‘high-level-qualifier.PTCH6840.XMIT’)
  3. The RECEIVE command will issue the following prompt:
    4. Enter restore parameters or ‘DELETE’ or ‘END’

    Reply with: 

    DSN(‘dsn1’)

    where ‘dsn1’ specifies the name of the library to receive the patch distribution into. For example: 

    DSN(‘high-level-qualifier.DFILE’)
  4. Customize the NTXINST job in the'dsn1' library by specifying the following parameters, then submitting the job for execution:
    1. Change the DFILE parameter to specify the name of the library into which the patch was TSO RECEIVE'd in step 2 above ('dsn1').
    2. Change the HLQ parameter to specify the high-level qualifier name of the NetEx/IP base distribution libraries (e.g. what was specified in the Netex Rel 7.4 base install job).
    3. (Optional) Change the LOADLIB parameter to specify the name of the NetEx/IP load library to override the default ('hlq.NTXLOAD'). This parameter specifies the name of the library used when linking NetEx/IP with this patch.
  5. After this patch is installed, the output of the NetEx/IP 'Display Level' command (D L) will display "Release 7.4.1". NXMURD750E will then be output as NXMURD750W when the MSGLVL is 6 or less.
