Permanently applying PTFs for a replacement of the same release

 

Permanently apply Licensed Internal Code and i5/OS® operating system PTFs by using the following commands as recommended before all installations (the delay option is chosen so you can schedule the IPL).

The primary partition of a logically partitioned system must be handled carefully.

  1. Ensure the secondary partitions are in a normal IPL mode with the system IPL action of IPL.

  2. Ensure the primary partition is a normal IPL mode.

  3. Perform the APYPTF commands on the primary partition.

    For more information on IBM® System i5™, System p5, and IBM eServer™ i5 and p5 systems, refer to Managing i5/OS logical partitions for more information. For System i™ 8xx or earlier models, refer to Manage logical partitions .
