IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 25, Number 26

June 26, 2023 Doug Bidwell

In this week’s edition of the IBM i PTF Guide, I have added a Ref tab, which contains general, pertinent information not found elsewhere in the Guide. I also wanted to point out that with a PTF for Advanced Job Scheduler server side, which is SI83469 and which is included in HTTP group PTF update June 2023, AJS will support processing of Set ASP Group when enabled. Finally, IASP support built in!
