Mark, do you have PTF on your SMPE 3.4 system? FIXCAT HOLDDATA is incompatible with prior releases of SMP/E. It can only be processed by SMP/E 3.5. Coexistence APAR IO07480 is provided for SMP/E 3.3 and SMP/E 3.4 to enable those releases to silently ignore the FIXCAT HOLDs when they are present in the SMPHOLD file. The PTF for APAR IO07480 (PTFs UO00700 or UO00701) must be installed on SMP/E 3.3 or SMP/E 3.4. Failure to install these PTFs will cause the RECEIVE command to fail with message GIM20311E and GIM56701E when processing SMP/E HOLDDATA, after the availability of z/OS 1.10. When installed, this fix will ignore FIXCAT ++HOLD statements during RECEIVE processing of HOLDDATA when using SMP/E 3.3 or SMP/E 3.4.
The PTFs for APAR IO07480 (UO00700 and UO00701) are available in RSU0803. Note: Users running a SMP/E release prior to 3.3 will not be able to process ++HOLDs after the general availability of z/OS 1.10.
