Installing changes to a target context definition
The INSTall command can be entered from the TGTDEF or TGTDEFD view.
Enter the INSTall command to immediately update the local CAS and install changes to one or all target context definitions without waiting until the CAS is recycled or the next system IPL.
The INSTall command dynamically updates the runtime version of the target context definitions in the local CAS, if the local CAS is using the currently displayed BBPARM member. In a shared BBPARM environment, you must display the BBPARM member in TGTDEF on each CAS and enter the INSTall command to update the runtime version for each CAS.
No changes are made to any target entries in BBPARM member BBIJNT00.
INSTall does not save changes to the BBPARM member—a SAVE or END command (or its corresponding PF key) updates the BBPARM member; see Saving-a-target-context-definition.
The following forms of the INSTall command are available:
Primary command
The primary form of the INSTall command is entered on the COMMAND line.
When INSTall is entered from the TGTDEF view, all of the target context definitions in the currently displayed BBPARM member are updated in the runtime version of the local CAS.
Because the TGTDEFD view displays one target context definition at a time, only the current definition is updated in the runtime version of the local CAS when INSTall is entered from the TGTDEFD view.
Line command
The INS line command is entered in the line command field and is entered in the same way on both the TGTDEF and TGTDEFD views. The action is taken against the current resource where the command is entered.
