Data sets used

The following data sets might be needed to run the RECEIVE command. They can be defined by DD statements or, normally, by DDDEF entries. For more information about these data sets, see SMP/E for z/OS Reference.

client
server
orderserver
SMPCNTL
SMPCPATH
SMPCSI
SMPHOLD

SMPHRPT
SMPJHOME
SMPLOG
SMPLOGA
SMPNTS
SMPOUT
SMPPTFIN

SMPPTS
SMPRPT
SMPSNAP
SMPTLIB
SMPWKDIR
SYSPRINT
SYSUT1

SYSUT2
SYSUT3
SYSUT4
ZONE

Note:

SMPHRPT is an optional data set. If SMPHRPT is defined, the HOLD reports are directed there.
For RECEIVE processing, the SMPCSI DD statement refers to the data set containing the global zone, which is where SMP/E stores information about those SYSMODs received.
SMPNTS and SYSUT4 are required only when FROMNETWORK, FROMNTS, or ORDER are specified.
The SMPHOLD DD statement is required only if exception SYSMOD data is to be received from SMPHOLD.
The SMPPTFIN DD statement is required only if SYSMODs or ++ASSIGN statements are to be received from SMPPTFIN.
client represents the DD statement specified on the CLIENT keyword on either RECEIVE FROMNETWORK or RECEIVE ORDER command. It is required only when CLIENT is specified.
server represents the DD statement specified on the SERVER keyword on a RECEIVE FROMNETWORK command. It is required only when SERVER is specified.
orderserver represents the DD statement specified on the ORDERSERVER keyword on a RECEIVE ORDER command. It is required only when ORDERSERVER is specified.
zone represents the DD statements required for each distribution zone or target zone used by this command. If the DD statements are not specified, SMP/E dynamically allocates the data sets using the ZONEINDEX information in the GLOBALZONE entry. Also note that, while DD statements may be used to override the ZONEINDEX information, they are not a substitute for a zoneindex. A zoneindex is always required for a zone.
When TRANSFERONLY is specified, SMPHOLD, SMPPTFIN, SMPPTS, SMPTLIB, SYSUT1, SYSUT2, SYSUT3, SYSUT4, and zone are not used.
SMPWKDIR is an optional DD statement used to specify a directory in a UNIX file system for the storage of temporary files created during SMP/E processing. If an SMPWKDIR DD statement or DDDEF entry is not specified, SMP/E will use both the system /tmp directory and the package directory in the SMPNTS directory for temporary work files.
SMPJHOME is an optional DD statement used to specify the path used to locate the Java™ runtime. SMP/E requires the Java runtime for RECEIVE ORDER processing, and to calculate SHA-1 hash values for RECEIVE FROMNETWORK and RECEIVE FROMNTS when ICSF is not active. If the Java runtime is not specified using an SMPJHOME DD statement or DDDEF entry, then the directory can be specified on the javahome attribute of the client data set for the RECEIVE ORDER and RECEIVE FROMNETWORK commands.
SMPCPATH is an optional DD statement used to specify the search path for the SMP/E Java application classes required for RECEIVE ORDER processing. When ICSF is not active, the application classes are also required to calculate SHA-1 hash values for RECEIVE FROMNETWORK and RECEIVE FROMNTS. If the classpath is not specified using an SMPCPATH DD statement or DDDEF entry, then the directory may be specified on the classpath attribute of the CLIENT data set for the RECEIVE ORDER and RECEIVE FROMNETWORK commands. If classpath is not specified either in the client data set or by using an SMPCPATH DD statement or DDDEF entry, then a default classpath value of "/usr/lpp/smp/classes/" is used.
