We did a RECEIVE ORDER CONTENT(RECOMMENDED) in early April (just after the "New
Service Levels" email), and got a number of fixes for RSU1903. Over the last couple
of days, it's been discovered that we are missing a few PTFs that would be part of
RSU1903 - or earlier.
Yesterday, I therefore as an exercise did another RECEIVE ORDER
CONTENT(RECOMMENDED), and this time got more fixes for RSU1903.
Do IBM assign RSU numbers retrospectively to PTFs, after the published RSU date?
No, IBM does NOT assign RSU sourceids to PTFs retroactively after the
published RSU date. At least its not supposed to work that way. Are
you sure on your second RECEIVE ORDER one or more ASSIGN statements for
RSU1903 were received? Or did you specify the RSU1903 SOURCEID on the
RECEIVE command your self? If you did receive such ASSIGN statements,
and if you still have it, I'd like to see the RECEIVE command output for
both jobs please.
BTW, as already mentioned, consider using CONTENT(ALL) instead of
CONTENT(RECOMMENDED) in the future. I'm hard pressed to think of a good
reason to only obtain recommended PTFs these days.

Chuck Norris never uses CHECK when he applies PTFs.
