Re: V7R2M0 TR ptf requires second IPL

I have not seen this on 7.2, BUT:

One thing I love is the CHGIPLA to STRRSTD(*YES) to bring the system up in restricted condition. I have noticed however, that with this set to *YES the second (any any additional) IPL needed to handle TR PTFs does not occur. This bit me on i 7.1, however since I no longer it set it for PTF application I have not see any issues with i 7.2. It likely would still be a problem.

Did you have this set to *YES when you did the TR PTF?

done.

V7R2M0 is a technology refresh requisite PTF required by one or more of
the
PTFs being loaded.

So, I have to IPL,
rerun the INSPTF
IPL again,
right?

I'll probably run the
CHGIPLA STRPRTWTR(*NO) STRRSTD(*YES)
before the first IPL to make the system come up in restricted state to
ease starting the second IPL.
