As stated below the last of our LPARs will be done in September. Several will be done way before then.

We don't wait "months" between getting PTF's in sync. Normally they all get synced up within a week. OS level's take a little longer. When they come out with a new OS level we put it on a few test or lowest use LPARs right away. The others wait until our next scheduled quarterly downtime. Our June downtime is before GA of 7.4 or you can bet that we'd have a lot, if not all, of our 15 LPARs to that level right then and there. Count on it for September.

I've applied the BRMS PTFs to DEV/R&D, production was always done weeks/months later.
Never had an issue.
That's good to hear. Thinking back to when we first migrated to our 8286-41A, we had BRMS running on a mix of OS versions, both 7.1 and 7.2.
