Deploying maintenance to BMC product runtime data sets

After deploying products, you might need to apply maintenance to keep your products current. Use the following procedure to apply maintenance:

Create a backup of the BMC SMP/E environment and BMC product runtime data sets.
Apply BMC maintenance.
(non-shared DASD only) Transfer the BMC SMP/E target data sets to the system on which the runtime data sets reside.
Best Practice

To ensure data consistency and to maintain PDS member alias relationships, BMC recommends copying complete SMP/E target data sets rather than individual members.
Copy the SMP/E target data sets to the BMC product runtime data sets.
