Yes that’s exactly what you do:-

Open MPEXMGR, edit it, save it as MPEXMGR2 or whatever,
PURGELINK MPEXMGR
RENAME MPEXMGR2, MPEXMGR

Everybody else will keep using the old MPEXMGR until they log out, and will pick up the new one when they log in again. The old file will die when its last accessor has gone.

Absolute lifesaver when you have to modify UDCs on a live system.
