One thing to remember, if you are the orginal submitter of a problem that causes an APAR to be opened and IBM supplies APAR fix test code. If you do not apply and test the APAR, and supply IBM with good feedback. The APAR can get be close without a PTF being built, even though there are others on the I-page for the APAR. I have had it happen that in working a problem I found an open APAR that matched my problem, the APAR was closed for lack of feedback, and I had to request it to be reopen so I could test the fix and give feedback which lead to the PTF being built.
