Updating Help/Systems Products

Before You Begin

Sign on under a user profile that is a member of the user class *SECOFR and has at least the following special authorities: *ALLOBJ, *SECADM, *JOBCTL, and *IOSYSCFG. The user profile should have Limit capabilities set to *NO. Make sure no users are signed on to the product you are updating.

End all Help/Systems products. The update process may stop the RBTSLEEPER subsystem. Because it is used by other Help/Systems products, stopping RBTSLEEPER interrupts processing by these products.

Enter the following command:

RBTCDRLIB/HLPCDMENU

This displays the Maintain Help/Systems Products menu.
