Just ran into similar problem with an SDSF PTF with a missing pre-req (z/OS 2.4). IBM agreed that the PTF was omitted from the pre-req chain.
If anyone really wants the info, I will dig it up and post.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you trust the sender.] I've responded to the poster personally due to my ISP's bad reputation my email gets blocked :( I had the same issue, I had the correct levels required for the shellscr and BBLU1702 was in my zone, I got by this by appling all the pre-reqs that were not applied one at a time, I found an apar that talks about deleting the entries but I didn't want to go that way. apparently SMP/E may be having an issue with the SHELLSCR elements when there's a delete element involved, but 2 other PTF's before the latest RSU2001 PTF when on without a hitch. sorry to respond personally, my email provider was blacklisted :( ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ::DISCLAIMER:: ________________________________ The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
