UM31784 is really a mini-RSU.  If you order it, you will get maintenance
for all of the same components that you get on a regular RSU.  I ordered it
and found 4 CP PTFs and 1 CMS PTF plus some for other components.  I've
loaded the CP parts and have them running on a 2nd level test system and
one LPAR with no adverse affects.  The CMS PTF is for IOCP and you only
need it for z9.
