Re: Applying PTF's permanently

[barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I only permanently apply PTF's when my back is to the wall, and I have to.
The disk space is a relative nit.

As I sit here on a sunny Saturday afternoon putting on cum C1100450, I had
time to think - bad move.

My question is just how many people apply the ptf's permanently before they
put on a new cum set?  We are 24/7 so the times I can steal the machine is
not that often without a "little" planning.  We have been running since
December when the last cum was installed & I missed the one before C1100.
ECS will once in a while download some ptf's to be applied (which I will
do)
but the system has been running just fine - as far as I know.

They tell you by applying ptf's permanently you will free up some disk
space.  Is there some place I could figure out just how much they are
talking about?  Or is it just not enough to worry about?

I ALWAYS do an option 21 SAVSYS before putting on of a new cum.  If there
is
every a bad ptf found then it gets real messy to reload your system to
remove this bad ptf but other than that, what other drawbacks might there
be
to applying ptf's permanently?

Well, back to getting the cum installed.  The ptf's have now been applied
with a PWRDWNSYS.

Thanks - Dennis.
