Re: PTF apply philosophies

Yes, but when letting the OS choose like that in a v5r2 system i always had
to go back and do re-runs, for some reason the system choose other ptfs
before the CUME and that made it bork the order... i rather let it install
in the order it came from fix central...

As a side note, I did do something a bit different this time, due to the
ongoing debate about whether to do the cume first and then the groups or
the groups first and then the cume.

(As for the 'debate' you can find it here
http://www.itjungle.com/fhg/fhg040412-story03.html towards the bottom of
the story in the section titled "Which Came First, The Group PTF or the
CUME?"

I loaded the image catalog with all four of my binary images that contained
the cume and the groups (and one additional single RDi/free-form ptf), and
then did the verify/sort and noticed that file_3.bin was the first one
mounted. I guess in effect I let the system decide.

No ill effects (at least not this time) and I did this both on my domino
and development partitions. Anyone else ever do PTF's this way?

Thanks, Jerry
