Confirm the Action: Accept

Use this window to confirm or cancel your request to accept operational internal code changes.

Accepting operational internal code changes makes them permanent internal code.

At this point in the task, operational internal code changes are all changes you installed that are currently activated.
Attention: Accepting internal code changes permanently changes the internal code of the selected Central Processor Complexes (CPCs) or their support elements. The process cannot be undone. That is, accepted internal code changes cannot be removed to restore their previous change levels.

Internal code change process

This window displays a summary of the internal code change process recommended by IBM. Accepting internal code changes is the second step (step B) of the process. Review the process before continuing.

Note: You should cancel your request to accept internal code changes in the following cases:
  • If you have not completed the third or fourth steps (steps C or D) of the process for previous internal code changes.
    • If you have not yet retrieved all previous internal code changes provided to you by IBM.
    • Or if you have not yet installed and activated all previous retrieved internal code changes
  • Of if you have not completed the first step (step A) of the internal code change process upon receiving new internal code changes. That is, if you have not yet performed a backup of critical data of the selected CPCs and their support elements.

You should confirm your request to accept internal code changes only after completing the recommended steps described above.
