IBM product enablement z/OS MVS Product Management SA23-1391-00 |

When you order an IBM® product that packages priced optional features with the base product, IBM supplies a tailored IFAPRD00 parmlib member that enables the product and any optional features ordered with the product. Thus, any feature ordered with the product is enabled during installation when the customer copies the contents of the tailored IFAPRD00 member to an active IFAPRDxx member. If you do not order a feature, it is shipped disabled, but you can enable it at a later time. For more information about enabling and disabling z/OS® features, see z/OS DFSMS Using Data Sets.. The following general steps provide an overview of how to enable optional features of any IBM product that supports product enablement.
If, after you use the feature, you want to discontinue its use, you must disable the feature — again using the IFAPRDxx member to define the policy change and the SET PROD command to activate the changed policy. Because disabling the feature in the enablement policy does not
stop the feature from running, you might have to explicitly stop the
feature. For example, you might have to:
Or, you might decide that the least disruptive way to stop a long-running feature is to IPL the system without the feature. After you disable a feature, ask your asset manager to contact your IBM representative to alert IBM that you are discontinuing its use on a specific processor. |
