Important Information
Installation / Upgrade Considerations
The recommended fixes in this list can typically be applied or removed "Delayed" with no special considerations. However, many of the fixes require that all of the PSF writers, printer writers and remote writers be ended, or that the QSPL subsystem be ended, when applied or removed "Immediate" (without an IPL).
However, it is recommended that you review the cover letter for each PTF to confirm whether each PTF can be applied or removed "Immediate" and to determine whether there are any special instructions.
For information on using Fix Central to download or order PTFs, refer to the following document:
