IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 26, Numbers 34 And 35
September 11, 2024 Timothy Prickett Morgan
It is not only a relatively quiet time still for PTFs, but it is also Ketchup Week since The Four Hundred has been on a light publishing schedule during the past several weeks of the summer.
We do have one security vulnerability and a few patches to deal with. First, we have Security Bulletin: IBM i Modernization Engine for Lifecycle Integration is vulnerable to multiple vulnerabilities, which you can find out more about here. The affected products include IBM i Modernization Engine for Lifecycle Integration 1.0 through 1.4.8 and 2.0 through 2.0.2.
Here is the rundown of PTF Groups by IBM i release level since we last published:
PTF Groups 7.5:
- HIPERs (High Impact/Pervasive)
- Security
PTF Groups 7.4:
- Java
PTF Groups 7.3:
- Defective PTFs
Tip O’ The Week: If you have an uninterruptible power supply for your Power Systems machine, you need to check out QMGTOOLS/DSPUPSSTS, which you can find out about here and which displays the status of the UPS backing up the main power on the machine. And if you don’t have a UPS that is powerful enough to at least allow for an orderly shutdown of your Power Systems server in the event of a power outage, why not?
