I'll second Al on that about group ptf's.  I'd be inclined - before running
an OS upgrade, to order all the group PTF's, for application straight after
the CUM.  There might be stuff you don't strictly need, but hey, its better
to be sure.

List of Group ptf's is at:
http://as400service.rochester.ibm.com/supporthome.nsf/Document/10000031
For V4R4 they are:
SF99208: Euro currency support
SF99200 Year 2000 (still being updated)
SF99125/SF99126 Net Commerce
SF99116 Print Service Facility
SF99103 Database
SF99092 Hipers
SF99092 Optical Support
SF99082/SF99083 Network Station
SF99075 Backup Recovery Solutions
SF99066 Java
SF99025 Websphere
SF99023 Performance Tools
