If you routinely apply each CUMe and occasionally adding HIPER and others between them, doing Groups / CUMe / IPL will not be a problem. If you wait a year or 18 months between PTFs though, you'd better go back to 'The Safe Way'.
Here's a time saving tip to help speed up 'the safe way': Before the IPL to apply the CUMe, change sysval QSTRUPPGM to *NONE and CHGIPLA to NOT start TCP or Printers but YES to start to restricted state. On some systems this can save more than 30 minutes of starting things up and shutting them back down between Groups. When ready to IPL to apply the Groups then put these values back where you had them.

Did anyone suggest applying a group first before a cume? I didn't see that.In theory, Tom, if you put on a cume but do not IPL, and then put on some groups then the prereq's and coreq's should be there. I do this on all cumes, after the first cume from the upgrade, and do not have any problems. However I still recommend putting on the cume, IPL, then groups, etc for immediately after an upgrade.Rob Berendt
