>From memory and besides the FMIDs, run a 'LIST SYSMODS PTFS' (with "SET BDY(GLOBAL)." for each CSI) - then compare the outputs. If either listing shows a PTF received and applied in one CSI, but not in the other, then browse the LMOD(s) to which the PTF was applied in your loadlib: you should then be able to see the last PTF which was applied to your LMOD(s) and this should help you determine from which CSI your loadlib was updated (i.e. COPYMOD'ed from a SMP/E target library). BTW If you need to apply a DB2 PTF, I would expect it to be applied first to a test SMP/E environment so that it can be checked out on a test LPAR - before then applying it in a production SMP/E one etc. Can you not determine which are your test and production CSIs?
