Workload Simulator for z/OS and OS/390 Service Information

Question & Answer


Question

What is the latest PTF level for Workload Simulator for z/OS and OS/390 and how do I determine my current Workload Simulator PTF service level?

Answer

NOTE: Make sure you review the Preventive Sevice Planning (PSP) information here and specify WSIM110 as the Upgrade Name for the PSP bucket. You will only see the most recent nine APARs and eight PTFs in that bucket. That is because APAR PM76696, PTF UK83460 contained all previous PTFs up to the date it was shipped. All PTFs should be obtained through IBM Shopz . The PSP bucket provides the following information:

  • Installation information

  • Documentation changes

  • General information

  • Service recommendations

  • Cross product dependencies


How can I receive free email notifications about product updates?
