Step 4: Verify the installation in a test environment

If you need to change any of the default options or DDNAMES then refer to Customizing High Level Assembler on z/VM. When you have completed any customization, return to this step.

When you issue the command to update the build status table for High Level Assembler, VMSES⁄E also executes the verification EXEC, V5696234.

Update Build Status Table and run verification EXEC.
