Re: PTF Steps?

"-IF-" the only groups you care about are the hiper and the DB groups then 
whatever ones were available at the time you ordered that cume will be 
applied.  Look at the ilstCUME.txt file (CUME may be replaced by something 
else at your facility).  You should see something in there like:
PTF#      Reason PTF
--------  ----------
... 
SF99504   ORDERED
SF99539   ORDERED
...
(I scanned for SF9.)  See WRKLNK - option 5 or DSPF.

And you won't see any special instructions for these two.  After you load 
them on you should be able to do a WRKPTFGRP and see what level they are. 
They should coorespond to what you see at:
