The information for the PTFs you need should be in the PSP buckets, and therefore in FIXCAT. So the easiest way to make sure you have everything you need (not just Health Checker migration checks) is to run an SMP/E job similar to this: //SMPCNTL DD * SET BOUNDARY(GLOBAL) . /* SET TO GLOBAL ZONE */ REPORT MISSINGFIX /* Identify missing PTFs */ ZONES(RESZ11T) /* In these target zones */ FIXCAT( /* For these categories */ IBM.TargetSystem-RequiredService.z/OS.V1R12 IBM.TargetSystem-RequiredService.z/OS.V1R13 IBM.Coexistence.z/OS.V1R12 IBM.Coexistence.z/OS.V1R13 ). -- Mark Zelden - Zelden Consulting Services - z/OS, OS/390 and MVS mailto:[email protected] Mark's MVS Utilities: http://www.mzelden.com/mvsutil.html Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
