You need  J13484.112 on if you use data spaces. We got bit by that pretty
 hard -- data corruption 
in the DB2 catalog so bad that DB2 wold not even come up. We didn't have 
any problems IPLing.

>Our hardware people tell us that J13846.106 is on our z/900 and that the
 other 2 are scheduled 
for activation on April 2. They also say that they have checked the other
 two and they do not affect 
anything that we use, so it is OK to go ahead and roll 5.2 out before the
y are activated. What say 
you Les (or surrogate)? Are the MCLs limited enough in scope that this co
uld be true?
