Staging the SYSMODs: The RECEIVE process

When you get a new function as part of a CBPDO, you get one logical tape that contains the function and the unintegrated service. If there is no preventive service for the function, it is not included in your order.

The first step in installing the new function is the RECEIVE process, which reads in the SYSMODs so they can be installed later:

If you have access to the SMP/E dialogs, you can use the RECEIVE dialog to receive the function and any related service and HOLDDATA.
You can use the RIMLIB job included on the CBPDO tape to receive the function, service, and HOLDDATA shipped on the CBPDO. For more information, see z/OS Planning for Installation and the documentation that was included with the CBPDO.
