Here are the APAR's listing PTF's for V3R2, V3R6, V3R7, V4R1 (& V4R1M4 - don't ask, but if you must know order informational APAR II10815 via SNDPTFORD). It would appear that fix is in base code for V4R2. It would also appear that these fixes are not on current PTF cum packages for V3R6 & V3R7, although MF17104 should be on the next V3R7 cum package, due around April 2nd (no additional cum packages are planned for V3R6 - but what are you doing on V3R6 anyway when V3R7 is a free upgrade and gives you a performance boost ! :-) ). I don't know, but would ASSUME (I know that's dangerous) that the fix made would also apply to Timestamp fields - anyone able to confirm or deny that ? Note also that Performance PTF's are summarized in an informational APAR for each release. You can SNDPTFORD for the following numbers: II11024 INTRAN OSP-PERFM V4R1M0 PERFORMANCE RELATED PTF II10120 CAN COMMON R370 PTF'S FOR SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND TOOLS II09876 CAN COMMON R360 PTF'S FOR SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND TOOLS II09985 CAN COMMON R320 PTF'S FOR SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND TOOLS II07811 CAN OSP-PERFM AVAILABLE R230 PERFORMANCE PTFS II07812 CAN OSP-PERFM AVAILABLE R220 PERFORMANCE PTFS II07813 CAN OSP-PERFM AVAILABLE R211 PERFORMANCE PTFS II07814 CAN OSP-PERFM AVAILABLE R210 PERFORMANCE PTFS II07950 CAN OSP-PERFM AVAILABLE R305 PERFORMANCE PTFS ------------------------------------------------------------------- Item MA16930 APAR Identifier ......
