    Discription from above is missing and should be :
    Copied from old Requirements system SSMVSS15003: Voting Priority=3.5

    The ACS Installation Exits (IGDACSDC, SC, and MC) all are defined as simple LPA resident exit routines. Can these exits be converted to use dynamic LPA services to install a new version or replace an existing version. Scheduling IPL's in today's environments are difficult.
