RE: IBM My notifications - IBM i

I ordered fixes this morning, and already applied them and IPL'd my 7.2
lpar. It looks like it applied both the bad PTF and the fix for the bad
PTF both. I had no issues with my IPL

IBM is really putting the notice out (if you've signed up for notices)

about a

defective PTF which may bite you in the butt during an IPL.
Basically if you have 5770999-MFsuchandsuch on, and only have 5770SS1-
SIsuchandsuch on, and do not have it's fixing ptf

5770SS1-SIsuchandsuch you

are at risk

This is only true for 15 of our 15 lpars.
