RE: New cume and TR for IBM i 7.3 are available

For 7.2 also. I just finished loading that one on my dev box. That one
gets IPLd Mon/Wed/Fri so I can play with it all next week, and
production IPLs on Saturday nights so I can load it next week if no
issues.

Something odd that I've never seen. I ordered it, and on the FTP server
I only saw the third image. I figured something had screwed up, so I
ordered it again. Same thing. The second time I noticed a file call
cached.packlink. I downloaded that one and opened it, and it had this in
it:
/home/ftp/ccss/cache/C8249720_1.BIN M180914_1.bin

/home/ftp/ccss/cache/C8249720_2.BIN M180914_2.bin

I downloaded the C8* files and they matched the byte counts, so I
renamed them and loaded them.

Subject: New cume and TR for IBM i 7.3 are available

I just ran this against one lpar:
WITH iLevel(iVersion, iRelease)
AS (SELECT OS_VERSION, OS_RELEASE
FROM sysibmadm.env_sys_info)
SELECT P.*
FROM iLevel, systools.group_ptf_currency P
WHERE ptf_group_release = 'R' CONCAT iVersion CONCAT iRelease
concat '0'
ORDER BY ptf_group_level_available - ptf_group_level_installed

DESC

And, lo, there are updates available for
SF99730 - 18242 - Current Cumulative PTF Media Documentation
SF99727 - 5 - SF99727 730 Technology Refresh

Too late (by a week) to put it on our production lpar this quarter.

It will have

to wait until December. I can put it on my sandbox when I get some

time.
