Installing the EPSPT Host Tool

Once you have used one of the methods above to place a dataset containing the EPSPT Host Tool (attributes are RECFM=FB, LRECL=80, BLKSIZE=3120) on your z/OS or OS/390 Host system you must use the TSO RECEIVE command from your TSO session to convert the EPSPT program back into its load module format.

• From the TSO command line, issue RECEIVE INDSN('epspt.data.set') -- where 'epspt.data.set' is the name of the FB dataset created in the previous step.

  The RECEIVE INDSN(...) command will generate these messages:

  Dataset WES.EPSPT.LOAD from WES on PLPSC
  Members: EPSPT
  Enter restore parameters or 'DELETE' or 'END' +
  

The original attributes of WES.EPSPT.LOAD were RECFM=U, LRECL=0, and BLKSIZE=32760. You can either receive EPSPT into an existing PDS which has identical attributes or place it into a new PDS by itself. To place it into a new or existing PDS, reply to INMR906A with the PDS name and/or with a member name (i.e. DA(PACKLIB) or DA(LIB_NAME(EPSPT)).
