So I am trying to apply maintenance and want to know the actual APAR to look up to see if its open closed, or what? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Radoslaw Skorupka Sent: Sunday, November 5, 2023 5:16 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: IBM APAR Names EXTERNAL EMAIL: Do not click links or open attachments unless you know the content is safe. YMMV In my 25 years career I have seen a lot of PTFs, web deliverables, but only one APAR fix. AFAIR I have read in some SMP/E course, the APAR fixes are not widely available and cannot be downloaded from ShopzSeries. APAR fixes are available directly to the customer who claimed the error in the software. And this is my case. However in some other cases we submitted PMR and APAR was created, but we got information about PTF available in (near) future, no mention about APAR fix. Of course it is only my humble experience, others can have different one. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland W dniu 05.11.2023 o 05:10, Bruce Hewson pisze: > Hello Jon, > > As a customer I currently have 638 ++APARs installed across my product base. > We regularly get test fixes, as in ++APAR, provided by vendors. > > I wouldn't really call them RARE. > > On Sat, 4 Nov 2023 13:31:17 -0500, Jon Perryman<jperr...@pacbell.net> wrote: > >> On Sat, 4 Nov 2023 07:19:49 -0500, Bruce Hewson<bruce_hew...@hotmail.com> >> wrote: >> >>> APARs for me are OAxxxxx or PHxxxxx - these are the entries describing a >>> problem, and may be associates as Error Holds to existing PTFs. >> The broader point that needs to be addressed is the purpose of an APAR. >> Since ++APAR are rarely seen by vendor staff and customers, there must be a >> much bigger use for vendors otherwise why do they bother with describe the >> problem in the APAR. >> > Regards > Bruce ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ________________________________ [https://go.aciworldwide.com/rs/030-ROK-804/images/aci-footer.jpg] <http://www.aciworldwide.com> This email message and any attachments may contain confidential, proprietary or non-public information.
