hi,
Thanks alot for your great information about Service programs.

However i have small question about it,

i have service program called “MYSRVPGM” consists of Modules ‘A’,'B’
once these modules(A, B) bound to service program(MYSRVPGM), in the above link they have mentioned that we can delete our modules which are already bounded with service program.

Assume that i have deleted A, B modules after bound with Service program.

Next time if i want to add one extra module ‘C’ to the MYSRVPGM, i dont have objects(A, B) of type *MODULE since i have deleted those objects from my library, without recreating MYSRVPGM with module ‘C’ is there any way to update my existing service program with module ‘C’ ?

No, you must recreate the service program to include the new module. The second article in the list I gave you goes over this in more detail.

This is why I do not delete the module objects. But then, we are only use 18 % of 1.2 TB so space is not really a problem. However, if you are concerned about disk space, just recompile the deleted modules, recreate the service program and then deleted the module objects again.
