thanks, that is the information I wasn't aware of, the fact that for CICS there isn't a special category like for IMS or DB2 and that these PTFs are all together in this generic category.So all PTFs from the former PSP extract files are now in any category either in a specific or in such a generic category?
I don't know the exact algorithms used to build the former PSP extract files, so I cannot guarantee ALL of those PTFs are represented by FIXCAT HOLDDATA. However, I do know that any PTF that appears in the Service Recommendation section of *any* PSP bucket (z/OS, DB2, IMS, CICS, etc.) will be represented in HOLDDATA with the fix category IBM.ProductInstall-RequiredService.
One additional question: Are the other informations from the PSP buckets (Installation Information, Documentation Changes, General Information etc.) somewhere available as downloadable txt files?
Sorry, I do not know this answer. Kurt Quackenbush -- IBM, SMP/E Development ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
