Kurt, Your answer helped me crack the code. I created a new subdirectory within SMPNTS and called it, RSU121625, and moved the SMPPTFIN directory and the SMPHOLD directory into it. I moved the pax file into the SMPHOLD directory so that it's only contents was the pax file

I then submitted the following JCL:
//S1 EXEC PGM=GIMSMP,
// PARM='PROCESS=WAIT',
// DYNAMNBR=120
//SMPNTS DD PATHDISP=KEEP,
// PATH='/zfslg2/SMPNTS/'
//*
//SMPCSI DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SMPE.GLOBAL.CSI
//SMPCNTL DD *
SET BDY(GLOBAL).
RECEIVE FROMNTS ( RSU121625 )

As I am posting this, the SMP job is running. Thank you for your help. I found a discussion of the SMPNTS in the SMP/e Commands document, and it was also helpful.
