I'd still like a CP QUERY command to query to see if a particular PTF is applied to your *running* nucleus.
Don't care about CMS or GCS needing to do that, because those are always fixable without getting the world involved. TCPIP would be nice too, but not as important as CP.

That is, is there some way that you feel IBM should express the concept of 'service level'? For the sake of discussion, let us assert that: - We are talking about the running entity, not the copy of the entity on the build disk. - Unless there are specific pre-reqs or co-reqs, PTFs can be applied in any order or combination. - Each component (CP, CMS, DIRMAINT, RACF, SES, etc.) has its own service stream Regards, Alan z/VM and Linux on System z Consultant IBM System Lab Services and Training ibm.com/systems/services/labservices office: 607.429.3323 alan_altm...@us.ibm.com
