Mike, starting toward the end of last year IBM decided to automate the 
process to apply any Pre-Req PTFs. I think you might have missed a message 
that said it was going to take '2' IPLs to get all the PTFs installed. Do 
another Normal IPL and the rest should apply this time. Then go back and 
do your checks again.

Did i apply my PTFs properly







I don't do a whole lot of PTF's so i'm not always confident in applying 
them.  I have a couple of questions. 
First is there a guide( haven't seen anything) for managing PTFs'? 

Second. 
I downloaded CUME c6142530 from Fix Central.  This is the first time that 
i didn't get CD's when ordering. 
I uploaded the Cume into an Image Catalog. 
Go PTF Opt 8 from image catalog.  Everything appears to have gone ok. 
      (Part of my reason for applying PTF was because it was suggested i 
have newest DB2 PTFS for a                   problem we are having with 
Turnover.  I tested the problem and it stills exists.  So i started 
looking to determine if my PTFs had infact applied.  )

did a Go LicPgm  opt 50  I see this
PTF installation process started. 
Loading of PTFs started. 
Loading of PTFs completed successfully. 
Apply PTF started. 
Applying of PTFs for product 5722999 completed successfully. 
Applying of PTFs completed. 
PTFs applied or removed during IPL. 

However if i do this 
WRKPTFGRP i see that 
PTF Group 
SF99530   not applied
SF99529   not applied 
SF99503   not applied 

As i understand it these are what should be with c6142530 

So that leaves me a little confused. 
Have i missed a step? 
Any guidance greatly appreciated.
