I get daily notifications from IBM on a number of topics. zOS, MQ, DB2, CICS 
hardware & software. Red alerts are infrequent.
AWS was down AGAIN today. Third time this month. More outages than I’ve had in 
20 years on the MF.

Bill,

While red alerts can be good, they do not provide information on 
Security/Integrity apars that have been generated.  To get those, you have be 
subscribed to the IBM Z Security Portal portion of Resource Link.
