Pretty much "bears with sticks". Drop down only goes to 2013 but if I search on 
UA38250 it picks it up even though created in 2011. Lewis Carroll would be 
amused...

I'm not sure it actually works, though. I'd guess you found a bug or
way around the GUI but that doesn't affect what database access you
get.

I set it back to 1970 and tried on OZ65725 which is the first APAR
that is mentioned in SYS1.MACLIB(CVT), and that probably predates
1981. No hits. But then again there is no hit on OA49967 which is the
last APAR in that macro dated 160819, so who knows... IBMers seem to
have access to even ancient APARs.

This link still works and looks like what I have been used to for a long time.

https://www-304.ibm.com/ibmlink/servicelink/servicelink.wss?lc=en=US


And a search on OA32850 yields

UA54685 PER 1/6/11  PTF 54685 IS NOW AVAILABLE - - - -

The drop-down for "From Date" only goes back to 2013.  But you can keep 
clicking the "back" arrow and go back apparently as far as you want.  (I gave 
up in 1991.)  

However, it still didn't return anything for OA32850.  I tried IBMLINK, but

It looks like Ed's link only goes back 5 yrs(2013). Don't know if you get more 
with pay-for or not.

2018-10-23 Thread Gibney, Dave
Thank you for the help. Two people sent me the text of the APAR, which gives me 
confidence that after 10 years, I can probably safely return to
 SETSYS CONVERSION(REBLOCKTOANY).

Barbara's link to me to a request for entitlement page, confirming that my 
IBMLINK ID has less access since we moved to MFaaS. We no longer pay for our 
own Resolve for zService.

Ed's link does get me to a nice new Granular Search page. Where OA32850 is not 
found when I search.
