Re: Defective PTF set to apply at IPL - how to stop it.

Speaking of "no remnant/residue" there is still this from a DSPPTF
LICPGM(5770TC1) SELECT(SI54738)

Display PTF Details

Product ID/PTF ID . . . . . . . . . : 5770TC1 SI54738
Release . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : V7R1M0

Select one of the following:

1. General information
2. Requisite PTFs

4. Superseded PTFs

6. PTF Objects
7. Symptom strings
8. Exit programs
9. APARs fixed

20. All of the above

Selection

So it's still "there" in some way.

I can't seem to delete it entirely, though. I get this:

There's no save file in QGPL and there's no cover letter. Is this a
Catch-22 or am I not understanding something?

Sorry. I used the word "attempt" to imply that the request might be
unsuccessful; expectedly. After that PTF was permanently removed,
apparently there no longer existed any record of the PTF in *SERVICE [nor
the corresponding downloaded PTF save file] for that PTF. I expect,
whether the DLTPTF request is supported after the remove, may depend on how
the PTF was delivered to the system; ¿or perhaps never supported after a
perm removed?

No matter. Just download, load, and apply the supersede now that there
is no remnant\residue of the defective PTF to interfere with the intended
replacement.
