A class value indicates an alternative way to release a held SYSMOD.
These are the values currently used by IBM®:
- Class
- Explanation
- ERREL
- The SYSMOD is held for an error reason ID but should be installed
anyway. IBM has
determined that the problem the SYSMOD resolves is significantly more
critical than the error reflected by the holding APAR.
- HIPER
- The SYSMOD is held with a hold class of HIPER (High Impact)
- PE
- The SYSMOD is held with a hold class of "PTF in Error".
- UCLREL
- UCLIN needed for the SYSMOD has been handled by IBM and no longer requires your attention.
- YR2000
- Identifies PTFs that provide Year 2000 function, or fix a Year
2000-related problem.
