Seems IBM hasn't clued in that they have been shipping PTF's on CD, not
tape, for several years now.    ;-)

 Message . . . . :   PTFs requested by Service Director will be sent on
tape.


 Cause . . . . . :   As part of IBM Service's continuing effort to provide
you
   with the best available service for your system, Service Director has

   requested one or more PTFs to prevent unscheduled system outages.  The
size
   of the PTFs exceeded the ECS transmit size limit. A tape containing the
PTFs
   will be mailed. Please load and apply the PTFs from the tape when it

   arrives.



Judging by this message in my QSYSOPR
I guess I am going to get one also huh ?
