Use the REXXUPD command to apply an update for a customer modification to a product source file, and to update the VMSES/E Product Inventory to reflect the modification of the product file.

The REXXUPD command has the following syntax:

REXXUPD fname ftype ppfname component [([NOCOMMENT | COMMENT]]

Definitions

  • fname ftype
    Specifies the source filename and source filetype for the file updated by a local modification.
  • ppfname
    Specifies the CMS file name for the Product Parameter File for the product being updated by a local modification.
  • component
    Specifies the component name for the product being updated by the local modification.
  • NOCOMMENT
    Specifies that the executable REXX program will have comments, extraneous spaces, and blank lines removed from the file. One REXX comment line is inserted at the beginning of the file as required by REXX. This is the default option.
  • COMMENT
    Specifies that comments and spacing will not be removed from the executable file. This option must be specified when applying an update to a product Build List EXEC file so that it is generated with the correct structure.

Description

The REXXUPD applies an update file for a local modification to a source code maintained part, and updates the VMSES/E Software Inventory to reflect the updated file. For more information about procedures to create local modifications, see the section Local Service.
