Guys,
I’ve installed COBOL v5.2 into our zOS v1.13 system, ahead of installing zOS v2.1 later this year. The product has been installed into its own SMP/E zones.
Everything appears OK apart from the IVP job IGYWIVP1, as supplied in hlq.HADB520.F3(IGYWIVP1) relfile. This fails in the Linkedit step with following unresolved references:

Code: Select all

IEW2278I B352 INVOCATION PARAMETERS - LIST,XREF,LET,MAP
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXBST1 UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXPRS UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXCMSG UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXDSP UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXTREC UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXRT1 UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXCRST UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL CEESG004 UNRESOLVED.  MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.

I can find no reference to these symbols/modules either within the SMPE system (looking in both zOS v1.13 zones, and COBOL v5.2 zones), or by scanning the expected possible libraries (IGY520.SIGY*, CEE.*).
I believe that I’ve followed the installation steps correctly and to the letter.

Any idea what might be missing, or where these modules can be?
The second IVP job - IGYWIVP2 - (compile and go) works fine.

Check APAR PI33378 -- there appear to be new run-time modules for COBOL 5.2 and you'll need to investigate the APAR and use the fix it provides. I found the APAR by doing a Google search of igzxbst1 and it popped up first.

Many thanks for that, Robert!
I'll certainly check that APAR and take action.
I had checked Google for another module and got nothing!

Looks like the SMPE FIXCAT usage should identify all required missing fixes?
For COBOL v5, following APAR's describe the fixes:
OA40593, OA41268, OA42047, PM87183, PM88047, PM88048, PI33378, and PM88903.
