I'm applying an RSU to our z/VM 5.2 system. I've already run the SERVICE exec against the envelope files and plan to do the PUT2PROD just before a scheduled weekend IPL.
I've been asked how to back it out if there are problems. Rather than volume and/or minidisk restores, can I just use VMFREM to back out the service? Would I use: VMFREM PPF SERVP2P <compname> PTF UM97520 (which was the PTF number for the RSU) against every affected component? (The components listed in the SERVICE $PRODS file). Then IPL? Would that work? Is there another/better way? Thanks in advance. Don
