Hi Darth,

Did they give you any indication of how many other sites if any have
been impacted?  I thought it would be flagged CATBREAKER but the
criteria must be a little different that that keyword. 

        Best Regards,

I should have been a little less cryptic - we've got the maintenance 
staged, but it's been delayed until the end of August.  I was OK with
this 
as we'd removed all our catalogs from ECS and initially that's where the

problem was thought to be, but after the update IBM was to make to
OA19870 
that "this apar should be applied to systems 
that have catalogs with shareoptions (3,4).  If you are sharing any of 
your catalogs, even without ECS, we are now suggesting that you apply
the 
APAR. ", I'm no longer comfortable waiting.  I wanted to see how IBM 
actually wrote the update & use that as justification to get the date 
moved up.  I've already gone through one catalog recovery because of
this 
and really don't want to do another one.  While 'practice makes
perfect', 
it's just no fun at all.
