I don't like me too! posts, but... Me too! One or two failures since the PTF's went on - and our IBM tech is friendly enough to tell us everytime there's a new DASD PTF out - usually within 24 hours he'll bring the fax out, hand it to us, and ask us to install them.... If it is a microcode problem they still haven't nipped it in the bud....
