Thanks, Bill. However, I don't think my question(s) were answered in that RED alert unless it describes to me how best to backout ptfs applied. And from reviewing the alert, I was not able to find that answer. And no, I do not have the PTF applied that the RED alert indicated.
Thanks for your response. I will see if others here have feedback or experiences here prior to contacting IBM. Kind Regards, Steve Steve S.
