Thanks, everyone. For some reason, I didn't think I could say LICPGM(*ALL).
No idea how I got that idea.

Oh wait. I think I already said "brain fart."

That might work. I tend to do this:

APY(*PERM)
DELAYED(*YES)
Since the odds are likely that there will be some delayed PTF's anyway why
not just apply them all at IPL time with DELAYED(*YES)? That, and your
concerns about special instructions are greatly reduced. For example
"this is an immediate ptf but you do have to end all tcp and start it up
again". I've found that to be slightly disruptive to the users.

Now, the only time I do not use LICPGM(*ALL) is when there are vendor
applications which also use the PTF process and I do not want to
permanently apply them. For example, Domino. I routinely have to RMVPTF
any hot fixes applied to that before putting on an upgrade. So I never
want to perm apply those hotfixes.
Since I have Domino on a bulk of my lpars I have to break it down by
individual product more times than not.

Sent by: "MIDRANGE-L" <midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx>



V7R1, haven't permanently applied PTFs in a while (though I have tons of
them temporarily applied), and I'm having a brain fart.

I'm fairly well up to date on PTFs and before I order the next cume, I
want
to permanently apply all PTFs that are now temporarily applied.

Is this the proper way to do this:

APYPTF LICPGM(5770999)
APY(*PERM)
DELAYED(*IMMDLY)

for each product, then IPL?

Thanks.
