APAR Error Description / Circumvention
-------------------------------------------------
Some tape drives have serial numbers where the right most seven
characters are of the form chhhhhh where c can not be converted
to a hex digit. This results in a SRC63A09210 PAL and a reported
serial number of all zeroes.
CORRECTION FOR APAR 'MA43293' :
-------------------------------
The code was modified to convert a serial number of form chhhhhh
to a form of 0hhhhhh and not generate a SRC63A09210 PAL.
CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR 'MA43293' :
----------------------------------
None.
Activation Instructions
None.
Special Instructions
This PTF will be automatically permanently applied.
This is a PTF for Tape IOP licensed internal code. To fully activate
it all the devices associated with the IOP must be varied off, then
VARY ON one of them with a RESET(*YES).
If it is not possible to vary on with the RESET(*YES) option,
you must IPL the system to activate this PTF.
To activate this PTF for an IOP
that will allow VARY ON with RESET(*YES):
1. Vary off all the devices attached to the IOP.
2. Vary on one of the devices under the IOP using
VRYCFG CFGOBJ(The device) CFGTYPE(*DEV) RESET(*YES)
and other parameters as would normally be done.
3. Vary on all of the other devices normally.
Default Instructions
THIS PTF CAN BE APPLIED IMMEDIATE OR DELAYED.
