RE: IBM Pre-Upgrade Verification Tool for IBM i (anyone use this, pros-cons).

I have always used the Informational APARS to get the required PTFs for the
release that I was going to, and that is always updated.

I would be very cautious here...

This morning, on a machine going from 6.1.1 to 7.1.0, II14482 specified
SI39390, 35186, 35189, 35438 and 39324 while the tool only called on
SI35186, 189 and 438.

I have downloaded the tool, and will try it out. It looks like a
