Problem
This document provides a list of PTFs that are required to correct defects found in Job Watcher, Disk Watcher and Performance Explorer (PEX).
Resolving The Problem
In addition to general PTF maintenance, the following PTFs are required to correct defects found in Job Watcher, Performance Explorer (PEX), and Disk Watcher. These PTFs are for both IBM iDoctor for i and the functions found in the base operating system.
If using iDoctor, ensure you have the PTFs listed in the Required PTF column next to the Install Image you downloaded.

Next to the PTF number, you will see (xxxx), which represents the Cumulative PTF level. (1000) is not yet on a cumulative PTF package.
See the iDoctor website for the client level and server build date.
