How did we get into a situation where HIPER (which stands for High Impact and PERvasive) doesn't also mean pervasive?
I suppose some significant customer got bitten because a non-HIPER APAR also affected them while they thought *they* would only be affected by HIPER APARs... The bad news is that many shops have service levels that require HIPERs to be applied in a shorter time frame after the PTF becomes available. I hope someone with better access to RETAIN will have done an estimate on how frequent a PTF for a HIPER is expected to be published, and how many outages folks will have when they want to install that within 2 weeks or so...
