The RECEIVE updates SMP/E datasets, and may create some new ones. But it does not update any executables. It basically copies information from the tape into disk datasets which contain only data, not running programs.
But that is a very good point. Before I do any SMP/E work, I do volume level backups of my SMP/E volumes. I have volumes dedicated to SMP/E, to make this easier. That way, if everything goes bad, I can restore the SMP/E environment. I never do the restores after an APPLY because you then lose your tracking information. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets® 9151 Boulevard 26 . N.
