    2  If you do not apply this PTF and you are running version 11.2.00 of the BMC AMI Utilities, SmartSwitch is not enabled and the following message is displayed in SYSPRINT: 

    BMC54001I  SMARTSWITCH NOT SUPPORTED BY NGT V11.02.00 SPE LEVEL 00

    • SmartSwitch is not enabled.

    Tips

    We recommend using BMC Internet Service Retrieval (ISR) to obtain PTFs. For more information, see the maintenance topics in the Installation System documentation. 

    You can also obtain PTFs from eFix PTF Distribution Services (eFix) or from the support site. For information about eFix, see the online Help.

    If you have questions, contact Customer Support at 1 800 537 1813 (United States and Canada) or call your local support center.

  2. Ensure that:

  • The BMC AMI Utilities on your system are in the same STEPLIB as the classic utilities, or that the BMC AMI Utilities are otherwise available in your system's LINKLIST, JOBLIB, or STEPLIB. If not, the following message is displayed: 

    BMC54000I  SMARTSWITCH NOT SUPPORTED - NO NGT VERSION FOUND
  • CDBSS is active on all LPARs in the data sharing group.

To reduce overhead, SmartSwitch performs the following actions:

  1. Verifies that the BMC AMI Utilities are available in your system's LINKLIST, JOBLIB, or STEPLIB
  2. Attempts to load the BMC AMI Utilities version information module for each product. SmartSwitch is bypassed if the load fails, or if you did not apply the BMC AMI Utilities PTF.
