That is why I asked Kurt Q. to jump in (in another post, not tracked below). I *think* the DLIBs are built from the TLIBs, but I am not sure.
If this is the case, then no problem will occur. If the RELFILES *are* needed for the accept, then the OP has a problem, he can *never* run a ACCEPT for the current software. The rollout process is calling for some RELFILES that no longer exist. For a fair amount of work (I do not believe it is worth the effort) the RELFILES could be recreated from the TLIBS. I can pretty much guarantee that the RELFILES *ARE NOT* used by the running system, so dummy RELFILES can be supplied to satisfy the requirements of the rollout process. Moral of the story. ACCEPT the base functions immediately after successful APPLY. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Pommier, Rex Sent: Monday, July 1, 2019 11:27 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: [External] Re: zOSMF software validation looking for *.F files Allan, Are you sure the RELFILES aren't needed for the ACCEPT? In my old brain, I'm thinking that ACCEPT copies modules etc from the RELFILES.

Run the accept w/NOPURGE and then manually delete the RELFILES. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Pommier, Rex Sent: Monday, July 1, 2019 10:49 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: [External] Re: zOSMF software validation looking for *.F files There is definitely an option to not delete the RELFILES. PURGE/NOPURGE does this - part of the cleanup options. One purpose of this is if you are using a single SMP/E GLOBAL zone with multiple target and multiple distribution zones managed by it. You can use the NOPURGE to ACCEPT SYSMODS into the first DLIB zones then change to PURGE to accept into the last DLIB.

I do not recall if there is an SMPE configuration option to override this. If DB2 V12 is installed in the same SMPE environment as DB2 V11, I expect problems. The SMPE MCS for DB2V12 FMIDs most likely contains ++DELETE statements for DB2V11 FMIDS.

As a new install of a new release, what reason would you have to try to do a RESTORE? Doing this may clean up the RELFILES as well, depending on how your options are set. Obviously that is not the case of maintenance. For maintenance on the DB2 12, I would do similar as Alan mentioned. APPLY maintenance, then let it sit for weeks/months and then ACCEPT the PTFs - or wait for the ACCEPT until right before your next APPLY cycle.

As soon as I have my first system successfully migrated? Or right before the first maintenance Apply? thanks Bill ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN The information contained in this message is confidential, protected from disclosure and may be legally privileged.
