Reporting output

When APPLY processing is complete, these reports will help you analyze the results:

The SYSMOD status report provides you with a summary of the processing that took place for each eligible SYSMOD, based on the operands you specified on the APPLY command. It shows you which SYSMODs were applied, which were not applied, and why.
The Element summary report provides you with a detailed look at each element affected by APPLY processing. It tells you in which libraries the elements were installed.
The Causer SYSMOD summary report provides you with a list of SYSMODs that caused other SYSMODs to fail, and describes the errors that must be fixed to successfully process the SYSMODs. This report can reduce the amount of work involved in figuring out which errors caused SYSMODs to fail.
The File allocation report provides you with a list of the data sets used for APPLY processing and supplies information about these data sets.

Additional reports may be produced depending on the work being done and the content of the SYSMODs. For more information about all the reports produced by the APPLY command (and samples of actual reports), see SMP/E for z/OS Commands.
