Whether you define a default zone group or specify a zone group on the APPLY, ACCEPT, and RESTORE command, SMP/E will determine during command processing whether any cross-zone requisites are unsatisfied. Cross-zone requisites are caused by ++IF statements, where a SYSMOD containing a ++IF statement resides in one zone and the function identified on the ++IF resides in another zone. If the requisite identified on the ++IF statement does not reside in the same zone as the identified function, then the condition is not satisfied.

Unsatisfied cross-zone requisite conditions will cause APPLY, ACCEPT, and RESTORE command processing to fail for the SYSMOD containing the ++IF statement. Processing continues to fail until the requisite is satisfied in the other zone, unless the BYPASS(XZIFREQ) operand is specified on the command.
