After determining which SYSMODs are to be accepted and which elements should be selected from each SYSMOD, SMP/E begins actually installing these elements by performing the following tasks:

1. Determine the order in which the SYSMODs should be processed.
2. Perform delete processing for any SYSMODs in which the DELETE operand is specified on the ++VER statement.
3. Move specified elements, and delete or rename specified LMOD entries if appropriate.
   Note: Items 3 and 4 are combined and are done as each SYSMOD is processed.
4. Process any inline JCLIN.
   Note: Inline JCLIN is processed at ACCEPT time only if ACCJCLIN is set in the DLIBZONE entry.
5. Call system utilities to install the selected elements.
6. Update the applicable distribution zone entries.
7. Produce summary reports identifying all processing done.

The following topics describe each of these tasks in greater detail.
