Re: V7R3 TR6 release date / Next CUM release date

And other things go haywire as well. Helped a customer who used a 'different business partner' to install their new hardware. It happens. Partner used an older resave "New enough for Power8!" and then restored customer O/S etc on top of that. Customer's was newer. Restoring many libraries failed. Hundreds of objects wouldn't restore.

Turns out needed MF PTFs were not in evidence. Oops.

IBM, as usual, will be issuing a resave of IBM i 7.3 to match the new TR.

When doing an upgrade, or especially a new install on new hardware, I recommend using the latest resave.

Once you've tried to do a new install with an older I_BASE_01 and couldn't get it to boot from the new device you tend to remember this.
This is why using an older I_BASE_01 with the latest cume may not always be acceptable.

Subject: V7R3 TR6 release date / Next CUM release date

V7R3 TR6 is scheduled for 5/10/19.
V7R3 Next cumulative package is scheduled for 5/24/19.

I thought the TR's had dependencies that were normally included in a related CUM.
Thus, CUM would be out before the TR.
Or,
Are the TR's and CUM totally independent?

Thank You
