Can I create policy statements using the MODIFY command?

We recommend against creating policy statements using the MODIFY command because the system will not remember changes you made using MODIFY when IBM® Health Checker for z/OS® is restarted. The policy is the place to put permanent check changes that you want to have applied to any checks you add in the future. Use HZSPRMxx to create a permanent policy for IBM Health Checker for z/OS.

All the policy statements you create in the HZSPRMxx parmlib member or members you specify that the system is using add up to the single IBM Health Checker for z/OS policy.
