1) Run apply check with no holds bypassed
2) Add bypass(holdsys(xxxx,yyyy) for each 'SYSTEM HOLD' encountered. Rerun
apply check. Wash rinse repeat until all system holds are resolved.
3) for each message " GIM35901I ERROR HOLD xxxxxxx WAS NOT RESOLVED." Go to
http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/search/ and enter xxxxxx as the
search argument
Select PTF pppppp appropriate for your OS release. Receive and add to
apply check. E.g. APPLY CHECK S(RSU1207, ppppppp). If no PTF is available
proceed to next item. Wash rinse repeat until the
List is exhausted. [1]
4) Run APPLY with no check operand.
[1] At the bottom of each search item returned there will be one of the
following:
A list of PTFS (Unnnnnn) with HYPER-links for ordering specific
maintenance. Obtain this maintenance.
A status of OPEN. No PTF currently available. In *some* cases an APAR fix
can be obtained. APARs are not as completely tested as PTFS. Be cautious unless
really needed.
In some cases, PTF number, but no HIPER link. APAR has been tested and PTF
is going through testing.
