Abstract

SAP SUPPORT REQUIRED PTF LIST FOR IBM i 7.4

Content

If you are upgrading to IBM i 7.4, load the following PTFs, and then follow the directions in SAP note 2786037, especially noting the prerequisite kernel patch levels.
If you attempt to install more 5770-SS1 options or other licensed program products(LPPs), reload and reapply group and cumulative PTFs.
                                                                     
To order the most recent cumulative or group, request the SFxxxxx number shown in the table. CL command WRKPTFGRP displays the current level and status of cumulative and Group PTFs, been installed on the partition.  CL command DSPPTF displays, by LPP, the individual PTFs installed on this partition. Also, keep in mind, that the HIPER GROUP is much more important than the Cumulative package. HIPER PTFs are High Impact Pervasive PTFs and are updated almost every week!!!
