Google for "z os maintenance best practices"

In my search, the second hit was "z/OS Preventive Maintenance Strategy to 
Maintain System Availability"

From near the end:

"It is suggested to upgrade two to four times per year to the latest RSU 
Preventive Maintenance
that is available. HIPER and PE fixes should be reviewed weekly, and installed 
weekly or
monthly if possible. HIPER fixes can be ordered and received for immediate 
installation if
needed. Security/Integrity APARs and Red Alerts should also be monitored 
regularly."

HTH,

Our auditors (Feds) say we need to apply all new PTF's within 30 days of 
availability. I'm speechless. Does anyone have the patience to form a cogent 
argument without laughing, crying, or tying one on?
