You can load them from *savf. Normally, the save file name will be "Q" plus "PTF number"... Best Regards. James Fu TDL Group Corp.

I don't remember where for sure the PTFs go when you say download immediately, but I think they end up on the iSeries. Now if you only DL'd a couple of PTFs and you know the numbers, you could just do a DSPPTF and find them. then do a LODPTF and APYPTF as required after reviewing the cover letters. I have in the past done a DSPPTF to an outfile and then queried that file excluding statuses perm, temp, superceeded etc to get the a list of PTFs that need to be loaded and or applied. GO LICPGM option #50 might tell you something as might DSPLOG QHST around the time of the download. If you are brave you could just so a GO PTF option #8 and tell it the device is *SERVICE. _____________________ Kirk Goins CCNA Systems Engineer, Manage Inc.

So far my involvement with Fix Central has been to order fixes and use FTP to pull the images down. This works well, when it does work. This last go-around I tried something different and I am not sure how to proceed. Fix Central gives you the option to order by FTP, mailed Media or download immediately. I downloaded immediately and the PTF's show "Downloaded". The link for "help" takes you to Management Central where you are instructed to use fixes inventory option to find and apply the PTF's. Taking the "Install Software Fixes" option ran through processing all fixes for all products. It first showed the status of "Available" and then went to a status of "No fixes to available to process". So, if the PTF's *were* downloaded (and Fix Central has been a little flaky lately) then where are the fixes and how do I load them? Unfortunately the help text in Fix Central appears to be no help at all. I am sure there must be documentation on how to do this somewhere. If I can find it, I'll RTFM.
