Chapter 5. Simplified Activation In Batch - IBM AS/400e User Manual

Chapter 5.
Electronic Service Agent can be activated in a batch environment. This approach is
helpful for customers with many remote systems and would like to send programs from a
central site for remote activation. In order to use this method, the Electronic Service
Agent product is installed and the Service Agent Simplified Activation PTFs are
available on each system for install or already installed.
A sample CL program can be found in, Appendix B, page 16. Before using a program,
the International License Agreement for Services Programs must be accepted.
To accept the license agreement, do one of the following:
