As I understand SMP/E, if there is no DD in the JCL, then SMP/E will allocate based on the DDDEFs. If there is a DD in the JCL, then SMP/E will use it. The first attempt at capturing the output was to do exactly as you indicated. That didn't work for whatever reason, and I say it that way because not only did I get no output on SYSPRINT, I did not get any errors reported on the JES log, SYSMSGs, SMPOUT or SMPRPT. And, I'm using a usermod that APPLYs with a return code of 0 and an assembly listing as well as a link map. That's why I'm so confused about what's going on here. The CSI definitions are fine when I don't try to capture the output but when I supply my own DD statements I get nothing. It's just not making sense to me why things aren't working as I would expect. I don't know if it's a release thing or not. We're running z/OS 1.13 and SMP/E 36.38.

Indeed, JCL overrides "just work". Assuming you have DDDEFs for all required datasets, your APPLY job that works could be as simple as: //jobname JOB acctg.info,MSGCLASS=X,... //stepname EXEC PGM=GIMSMP[,REGION=0M[,...]] //SMPCSI DD DISP=SHR,DSN=my.smp.global.csi //SMPCNTL DD * SET BDY(tgtzone) . APPLY S(usermod) ASSEM REDO . /* Based on your descriptions, you get your //SYSPRINT output in class X. To get your //SYSPRINT output into class F, you need only add one JCL statement: //jobname JOB acctg.info,MSGCLASS=X,... //stepname EXEC PGM=GIMSMP[,REGION=0M[,...]] //SMPCSI DD DISP=SHR,DSN=my.smp.global.csi //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=F <<<<<=========== add this statement //SMPCNTL DD * SET BDY(tgtzone) . APPLY S(usermod) ASSEM REDO . /* It really is that simple. -jc- ********************************************************************** Information contained in this e-mail message and in any attachments thereto is confidential.
