We are two Cumulative PTF levels behind and several levels behind on
most Group PTFs.
I'm ready to install the latest and greatest today (*Delayed) for them
to apply this weekend after the backup/IPL.
I seemed to recall reading that the recommendation was to install all
existing PTFs *PERM prior to loading a new Cumulative/Group which I have
only ever done just prior to an OS upgrade. I went searching and found:
http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l/201212/msg01172.html
...which states, in part,
"... Perm apply every PTF that is currently out there (So you can boot
off of A if needed, if a bad MF PTF is applied). ..."
What isn't said is *HOW* to install them permanently.
I would like to use this command :
APYPTF LICPGM(*ALL) APY(*PERM) DELAYED(*NO)
...because I have no window to IPL to apply them DELAYED(*YES) prior to
installing the new PTFs from the Cumulative/Groups.
Can anyone tell me if this is a good/bad idea?
If it is acceptable, is there any impact on system performance while the
existing PTFs are being applied *PERM?
Thanks for any advice.
Robert
