Re: SNDPTFORD SF99711 taking excessively long, unneeded secondary languages being downloaded, fixed by CHKPTF *NO to *YES

Note that this parm is gold for you if you are doing one partition as it tells IBM that you only want PTFs for stuff (and languages) YOU have installed on the requesting partition. This could save you hours :-)

IF you intend to distribute these PTFs to other systems that may not have the same product load this will be a problem.

Glenn,

SNDPTFORD SF99711 CHKPTF *NO on 1/27, 4 hours.
SNDPTFORD SF99711 CHKPTF *YES on 1/30, 3 minutes.

IBM is recommending CHKPTF *YES or changing the default to *YES

More to come.
