IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 24, Number 18
May 4, 2022 Doug Bidwell
Well, good people of IBM i Land, you are getting another relatively light week when it comes to PTFs, which makes sense with IBM i 7.5 and IBM i 7.4 TR 6 rolling out this week. This is good news because now you have time to digest all of the announcements and to start thinking about how you might take advantage of all of the new software Big Blue has been working on.
For those of you who have not kept current on your PTF patches, there is a vast archive of IBM i PTF Guide editions for you to plow through to get yourself current and to keep yourself that way. There is, as always, a link to all of the past annual volumes and weekly numbers of the IBM i PTF Guide at the bottom of this story.
