follow-up Help with verifying a PTF
I installed PTF UM31742 manually and got the same results. i.e, the IOCP utility still says it is Rel./Ver. 1.2 Guess I'll call IBM on Monday. Steve G.

Re: follow-up Help with verifying a PTF
Steve, Whatever process you used ... verify that the *new* IOCP MODULE has been placed on the "S-Disk" ... and that you re-saved CMS after you moved it (and probably other components) to the S-Disk.

Re: follow-up Help with verifying a PTF
I have verified this. I have access to 2 VM 5.2 systems. I installed this fix using SERVICE and PUT2PROD on one VM. On the other, I did it the manual way. Further, there appears to be 6 modules involved. IOCP.MODULE ICPPCNTL.MODULE IOPPCNTL.MODULE IXPPCNTL.MODULE IZPPCNTL.MODULE IYPPCNTL.MODULE I have an EXEC that will take a module and break it down into 72 byte records. When I edit the file I created, I scan for VERS (short for version) and I see 1.2. The other thing is that at the end of the modules is the PTF name/number. In all cases, it is UM31742, which is supposed to be the one for 5.2 I've crossed checked myself about 5 different ways to be sure. Yes, I could have still missed something. The IOCP utility isn't a big deal. My concern is I downloaded about 10 other ptfs that were z9 VM 5.2 related and now I'm a little concerned whether any of those are correct. I hope I've over looked something.

Re: follow-up Help with verifying a PTF
The z9 box is a(n) m/t 2096. What got this started is when I tried to 'compile' using the IOCP util. shipped version of 5.2, It didn't like the SYSTEM param of 2096. That plus some other things that are either unique to a 2096 or a ds8100. I got a bunch of errors. After installing UM31742, I'm still getting the same errors.

I suppose you will have to wait for one of the IBMers to confirm this, but it sounds like you have installed everything correctly; and, have placed the updated components in production.
