Justin,

It's also disruptive when the last number is greater than the
current fixlevel you are running. So as an example, if you had loaded onto
your machine, 01_SF240_338. Then, when you load the lastest fix of
01_SF240_382_382, the last 3 digits are greater than the current fix package
of 338, so it will be disruptive.

Good catch, and thanks for the warning.

Be sure to read the cover letter.  This one is disruptive due to a
change of the last number in the firmware level.  The one which
doesn't usually get mentioned.  SF240 has had the same "last
disruptive" of 201 since it came out.  And from the wording on the
cover letter, it sounds like it doesn't give you any warning when it
bounces the CEC and all your LPARs.  Haven't tried and don't care to
crash LPARs to find out, tho.

A service pack is disruptive if the service pack level and the last
disruptive service pack level are equal. The latest version is
SF240_382_382.

Enjoy!
