Re: PTF Groups

NOPE !!!!!!!!!!!

        I ordered V4R5 stuff last week, after attempting to input the string
into the iPTF process a number of times, I finally gave up and went green
screen, did a sndptford for all eight packages delaying the report step.
Then I hooked up the modem, and reported them as one group.  Well, I still
got eight Airbourne Packages, although the driver only had to come out once.

        Why in this day of OPS NAV (I should have a list box of those
PTF's/Packages available for my system to just select from), high speed
Internet, and relational Databases is this so hard. They doing the backend
processing in IBM DOS or something ????

PS: The AIX world has had a great process for years, maybe we will when AIX
comes to iSeries..
