IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 19, Number 15
April 26, 2017 Doug Bidwell
It has been two weeks since the last batch of HIPER PTFs came out, and while the PTF action is a little on the light side, there are a bunch of important updates that are out for IBM i 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3.
As we have explained before in the IBM i PTF Guide, every two weeks Big Blue updates the High Impact and Pervasive, or HIPER, PTFs that are so critical to the system that in Big Blue’s opinion they should be on every system as quickly as possible. In general, any HIPER PTF that affects any operating system releases is fixed as long as support for that IBM i release is still ongoing. Below is a listing of the important HIPER PTFs, and don’t be fooled by the descriptions on some of these. They may not appear to be deadly, but then neither did Poison Ivy. . . .
