after install new PTF we do not need to recompile any module in PTF maintenance data sets.

hi support，
Now in BOC，we store the PTF maintenance data sets in two separate volumes, such as product Volume 1 and product Volume 2, these data sets on the volumes using the Indirect catalog.So thess data sets on volume 1 can in catalog，and others on Volume 2 can be uncatalog. we can install the new FTP in the Volume 2 where C:D is active using the maintenance data sets volume 1.After install PTF，we will restart C:D using the maintenance data sets volume 2 at the right time.And keeping the old PTF in Volume 1，we will install the next new FTP on Volume 1.
Then we have a problem.we use Stage1 Stage 2 Security Exit：DGACXSIG、DGAMGSAF.Every six months we install the new PTF.And we recompile Security Exit each.Above as an example,we will referring to this change and the last change to recompile Security Exit when we install the new PTF on Volume 1.Then the work will increase and more prone to problems.we want an enhancement request:after install new PTF we do not need to recompile any module in PTF maintenance data sets.
