Does anyone have experience with installing a CUM PTF set and specifying

no automatic IPL? I do PTFs infrequently and would like to leave my

system up while the PTFs are being installed and the do the IPL myself

when it is done and I find a good time.


The PTF instructions that I received indicate that Y should be used.
