RE: PTF MF64534 for ROBOT TLS Vulnerability...

I've not looked, but what about pre-reqs and/or co-reqs?

Often times those force and IPL.

Furthermore, many PTFs affect services that have to be shut down first
rendering the box to almost restricted state anyway. At first glance this
PTF more than likely fits into that category. Much the same as TCP/IP PTFs.
They can be applied immediate, but TCP has to come down first, so in effect
you've IPLd anyway since no one can communicate.

Has anyone on V7R3 applied this ptf?
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas3MF64534
I have it loaded but it requires IPL and I can't do that in the middle of

the day. I do plan on IPLing tonight to see if it > changes the Cipher
list.

Hi Brad,

Not going to argue - but the document above says "THIS PTF CAN BE APPLIED
IMMEDIATE OR DELAYED."

That's not true?
