IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 26, Number 42
November 4, 2024 Doug Bidwell
Welcome to this week’s edition of the IBM i PTF Guide. Just a note of explanation to start off. In the Defective PTF section below, we only show you the first one for each release. Often there are more than one. If there is a new one that you haven’t encountered before, please follow the link in the Guide (for your release level) to get the complete list of defectives. And please review the special instructions – things sometimes become more complex the deeper you dig, especially with defectives.
Now, here is a bug for you in PowerHA. Some policies are disappearing after being set. (Thanks Alan for the heads up!) Patches are:
- 5770-SS1 7.4: SJ02306
- 5770-SS1 7.5: SJ02310
And then we have IBM i 7.3 Recommended Fixes – Temporary Disk Space, which you can find out more about here. There’s a set from October 25:
