Modifications to the JCL following a version upgrade
Modify the JCL that runs the Receive program (XRRCV), the Send program (XRSND), or the Observe program (XRACCPT) for HULFT. If there are multiple JCL jobs that run these programs, you must modify all of them.
This section explains the fields that require modification in the JCL following a version upgrade.
Modifications for operation log output function
HULFT7 introduced the operation log output function.
If you use the operation log output function, add the XRSYSIN definition card to each JCL job that runs any of the programs in Table 9.5 .

Modifications when using lower version of HULFT Cipher Option
You cannot use HULFT Cipher Option library of lower versions.
After a version upgrade, use only HULFT load module library.
If you combined HULFT Cipher Option library into HULFT load module library, modify the JCL definition so that they are no longer combined.
Addition of XRHOST or XRLOG2 Definitions
In HULFT for Mainframe Type MVS lower than Ver.5, the JCL does not contain DD statements that define XRHOST and XRLOG2.
To maintain compatibility with HULFT of lower versions, HULFT7 for zOS provides a function for executing the JCL in which DD statements for XRHOST and XRLOG2 are not defined.
In HULFT for zOS, this function is deprecated, and we recommend that you add DD statements that define XRHOST and XRLOG2 to the JCL that runs any program listed in Table 9.6 .
If the JCL that you are using to run any programs shown in Table 9.6 does not include DD statements that define XRHOST and XRLOG2, add DD statements for XRHOST and XRLOG2 to the JCL.

After knowing that it is a deprecated function, if you continue to use the JCL that runs any programs in Table 9.6 without defining DD statements for XRHOST and XRLOG2, refer to FILESET parameter of XRCREATE.
Modifications to the memory sizes used for functions other than resident programs
When you use JCL jobs to run any HULFT program other than the Send program (XRSND), the Receive program (XRRCV), or the Observe program (XRACCPT), the program may not operate correctly if the REGION size of the program is less than 1024K. Increase the REGION size to 1024K or more.
Required memory sizes for resident programs
For details about the required memory sizes for resident programs, refer to Required memory sizes for resident programs.
The version upgrade procedure is now complete.
