P.S. Here is the scoop as best I could understand from my support person.
There are TWO copies of the LIC, A and B.  B has temp PTFs, A does not.
Both are saved when you do a SAVSYS, both are wiped out when you do a LIC
load.  There is only one copy of the OS and licensed programs, and it
includes all PTFs.  When you boot to the A side, you are running PTF'd OS
code on top of non-PTF'd LIC.  (PTF'd and non-PTF'd referring to temporary
PTFs only; permanent PTFs are always loaded for both LIC and OS.)

Joe,

Shouldn't that be "When you boot to the B side you are running PTF'd OS code on top of non-PTF'd LIC"? Aren't temp PTFs always applied only to the B side? There was a time I thought I understood this.
