Thanks for the heads up Jerry.  They haven't flagged it as defective yet:

Defective PTF






I just finished applying the latest CUM (V5R3) and the HIPERs,

The IPL after the install froze with SRC B2003200 LP=001.

Anyway, with the help of a nice lady in Rochester I got over it.  To the 
point MF34850 (which was on the HIPERs) is a defective PTF.  I subscribe 
to the tech bulletin for defects, but never got anything on this one. 
In fact, the accompanying list indicated several PTFs that were 
superseded by this one.

This was the 3 May HIPER, btw.  Unless there's something really critical 
for me, I usually delay a week just to avoid something like this.  I've 
gotten several notices in the past (calls, even, in one case) after I 
might normally have applied the PTFs.  This one must have slipped 
through the cracks.

Just a heads up for everyone.
