Jake, The report is showing that you already have the fixes in house for most of the APARs being reported. The only one that is missing is the one showing in the CAUSER report. You need to go back to IBM and find out if the PTF that fixes APAR AA49159 is available and good (i.e. it doesn't have an open APAR against it as well). If the fix is available, obtain it from IBM, and RECEIVE it. Then when you run the APPLY, the fixing PTF should be picked up and allow the code to get installed. If the fix isn't available, then it is time to tread lightly. :-) I have on occasion researched open APARs against a PTF that I needed installed and have either bypassed the open APAR if I decided the bug in the APAR wasn't going to affect my installation, or I have held off on installing the PTF with the APAR against it deeming the bug introduced by the PE'ed PTF was worse than the bug being fixed by the original PTF.
