SMP does most of the work these days. I'm still confused, though. I think you said that there were 13 PTFs "bundled" in the APAR, and some of them were PE. I don't think I've ever seen anything like that. Usually, there are multiple PTFs in the APAR that are applicable to different releases. Sometimes there are even PTFs that apply to different products with coreqs. Skip thought you neant that the PTF addressed 13 APARS. That also seems unlikely to me, though, as he noted, not impossible. I also wonder why the PTF was so critical. Is something broken now that wasn't before the maintenance was applied? If so, I wonder if a PE PTF was applied without the PTF that fixed the PE. If it were me, I'd want to see the APPLY job or the SMPLOG to find out how the apply was done. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
