We're coordinating our IBM CST service level recommendations with the service levels on the IBM ISV Remote Development Program. (The environments are provided by the Developer Technical Support Center in Dallas.) This is intended to provide ISV's who are using Remote Development Program environments the opportunity to test their products at the same service levels which IBM CST recommends to our mutual customers.
ISVs who maintain test environments at their locations can perform the monthly activities described below to create test environments for their products at the quarterly service levels recommended by IBM CST:
| Month | Activity |
| January | Install RSUyy12 and all service through the end of December (PUTyy12) not already marked RSU excluding unresolved PEs. |
| February | Install HIPER/Security/Integrity/Pervasive PTFs and PE Resolution PTFs and their associated requisites and supersedes through the end of January plus IBM CST marked RSUyy01. |
| March |
Install HIPER/Security/Integrity/Pervasive PTFs and PE Resolution PTFs and their associated requisites and supersedes through the end of February plus IBM CST marked RSUyy02. At the end of March, subject to a documented list of excluded PTFs on the IBM CST Web site, all PTFs installed to this point according to this process and not already marked RSU will be designated RSUyy03. |

An ISV who finds a problem should report it to the IBM Support Center. If the problem is identified as a possible defect in IBM code that might impact the functioning of the ISV product, the ISV should contact the IBM Consolidated Service Test Team.
