We've been on V7R3 for several months now and I'm finally getting around to some minor annoyances with the display in WRKPTFGRP.
Annoyance #1: PTF Groups display in descending PTF Group sequence. I really preferred the sequence in V7R1, where that sequence would show CUMs first, then HIPERs, than Security. The V7R3 display has High Availability first, Hardware second, and TCP/IP third. Then you get CUMs/HIPERs/Security. For some strange reason, they have numbered the DB2 for IBM I group so it shows up near the bottom. Is there any way to get a different sequence?
Annoyance #2: Some Groups I don't care about. We don't have DB2 Web Query installed, yet this shows up as a related PTF group. We have no interest in it-the business decided to move to Power BI and everything is being extracted there. We also don't care about Content Manager Ondemand for I. If I remove these groups, they reappear when we use QSYS/CALL PGM(QSYS/QESORDPT) to reorder PTF Groups (done weekly). Am I missing some way to fine tune this process?
