Creating a CLIST or Batch Job to Invoke the Installed Version of FOCUS

Edit a copy of the CLIST or batch JCL you use to invoke your current production version of FOCUS. Create a new CLIST or batch job with the new high level qualifiers to invoke the upgraded version of FOCUS.

The fact that the FOCUS data sets are distributed as PDSEs requires you to concatenate these PDSE libraries in front of any fixed blocked private data sets you want to carry forward from prior releases.

When you invoke FOCUS, the banner indicates that the service pack was applied or the version upgraded, and it retains your original site code and CPU ID.
