Warning: PTF's require HDS microcode, which is not availab:
Just wanted to pass on a heads up on some APARs that require HDS
microcode on DASD. And that microcode will not be available until the
2nd week in January.
Was there a HOLD(ACTION) [or it might need to be HOLD(DEPENDENT?) - I
forget] against these APARs (or the Fix PTFs)? If not, a BIG
"PACKAGING PROBLEM" report should be filed with IBM since this
dependency should have been mentioned so as to suppress accidental
installation as occurred to you.
The APARS affected are:
OA11492 first shows the problem with the HDS microcode.
OA13907 has it also because it sups OA13907
We had several DASD volumes that the path would not come online after an
IPL. And they just happened to be systems volumes.
Thanks.
