Some for R540, others for R610. See: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=1209&dc=DB540&q1=z196&uid=isg1_2817DEVICE_2817-ZVM To check what are missing, I create one file (named SERVICE $STALIST) with all the Apars (one by line) and use only one command to search all. See "HELP VMSES SERVICE"... This list: VM64881 VM64879 VM64774 VM64820 VM64656 VM64793 VM64672 VM64747 VM64798 VM64807 VM64799 PK97799 Command: SERVICE ALL STATUS LIST You will see some missing. See on the PSP if they are for your release. Is the more secure way I know... No need to new execs... Good luck. ______________________________________________ Clovis Michael MacIsaac ---05/11/2010 17:12:45---Hello list, I'm trying to verify that I've got all the latest service for the z196.

There is also one "non-SES" PTF (UV61111) for EREP that also must be applied separately, but that is a different story. Any feedback will be appreciated. Thanks.
