Re: v6r1 PTFs to get TLS v1.1?

Yes an no. As I mentioned to Larry, I see a lot of customers buying
"used" systems. Where they get them I don't ask. :) But I don't
think it's IBM.

Larry,
I agree that they should have ordered 7.3 (or at least 7.2 but why stop
there?).
However I think Brad was just reiterating the folly of selecting 7.1 in
the first place on such an upgrade.
The part you were pointing out was that, while Brad sympathizes with them
he is telling them it's time to "pull the nail".

But in this case all they need to do is upgrade to i 7.2 or 7.3 correct?
They can be frustrated I suppose that they did not simply order their
new machine with the new release but that's not really on IBM if the
customer picked the release.
