Rob,

PTF was SI16108 for 5722ss1.

Doesn't say much, just "OSP Internal maintenance for SQL"

The way I read Aldon's notice, they were working/did have an alternative.  But 
when they were validating the solution on v5r3, they ran into problems.  Now 
the earliest memo I've saved is dated 10-2004, but it mentions that there was a 
prior memo that first discussed the problem.

Don't know when the actually found the problem, I assume it was pre-GA.

Of course, Aldon will soon be releasing LM support on AIX and Linux.  So I 
guess that's one way of working around IBM removing support from beneath you.
