Hi all
We are installing CMOD exits for the first time.  We would prefer to use SMPE and not a separate Load Library.  The exits are in COBOL which is not supported by SMPE.  We also have an Exit in COBOL that goes to a Unix File System.  
Does anyone handle these types of exits using SMPE?  We are currently checking with IBM SMPE Level 2 but would like hear any ideas from current users if possible.
Thank you
			
			
			
				We use SMPE for all our user mod exits, REXX scripts, HFS, JCL, etc.   We don't add the compiled version or DBRM to SMPE.  The compiled module is deployed into the same loadlib as OnDemand using our change managment process.  I am not an SMPE expert but below are two samples we use to receive and then accept the files in to SMPE
Here is the sample COBOL stored for audit purposes.
++USERMOD(R90902B) /*                                                   
  This USERMOD holds COBOL source code for LP1INCTL                     
  the SMPE is for the source.  The compile and DBRM is distributed.     
*/ .                                                                    
++ VER (P115)                                                           
    FMID(H272900)                                                       
    SUP(R90902A) .                                                      
++USER5(LP1INCTL) SYSLIB(SUSERCBL) DISTLIB(AUSERCBL).                   
       CBL THREAD

Here is a sample of our HFS files

Hope that is what you are looking for.
