I pulled the latest holddata before running the fixcat report.

Subject: Re: Fixcat and/or PSP Buckets?

When I expand fixcat IBM.DEVICE,TAPE in my SMPE environment I see the following:
IBM.Device.Tape.TS3500-TapeLibrary-3584
IBM.Device.Tape.TS7700-3957

If you regularly receive holddata (we do it daily) you should be covered.

Have no clue. I have always used the PSP buckets and not the FIXCAT info..

Maybe the question really is, what is the difference between fixcat 
(IBM.DEVICE.TAPE.*) and UPGRADE3957DEVICE?

<<snip>>
Search IBM LINK for UPDGRADEXXXXDEVICE, Where XXX is the "official" machine 
type.

E.G. Z/10 BC is d/T 2098 so the search would be for UPGRADE2098DEVICE

HTH,

We may be getting an IBM TS7720 grid and a TS3500 library frame. I ran a fixcat 
report using IBM.DEVICE.TAPE.* to see if there are any PTF's I should put on. 
There were about 9 PTF's that showed up in the report. We are running zos1.13 
on a z10bc-2098

Browsing the TS7700 customer information center it mentions 'refer to PSP 
bucket planning' for the list of applicable maintenance.

Does Fixcat (IBM.DEVICE.TAPE.*) cover all the bases or do I have to be 
concerned with PSP buckets also?
