A question on this though: If one gets the PSP buckets and put them on at the same time as the RSU, as one should, wouldn't it always show the ++?
I do like the idea of something that lists all the fixes easily, preferably by CP so logging on to MAINT isn't necessary (ok, I guess I could link the necessary disks, etc to do it from my id). But CP Q PTF ALL? Or CP Q PTF VM64123? Wouldn't that be nice. SERVICE STAT shows everything except if the current active nuc has the fix, this could bridge that gap.

Something like 8801++. Applying the next RSU would reset the flag until the next PTF outside the RSU is applied. 2) a new option to SERVICE that does the VMFSIM magic to list all PTFS applied to a component. Example: SERVICE LIST CP Resulting in something like: RSU 8801 PTF xxxxxxxxc PTF yyygyygyy Etc I think that would help non-SES wizards to understand without breaking the older method.
