Just like your car or your house, ignoring maintenance puts you in dept. Don't let the debt get so large that you struggle to pay it off!In this session we will discuss recent IBM changed from PTFs to 'Fix Information' and APARs to 'Known Issues'. We'll make the connection snd show you where things are changing and importantly where they are not. We'll discuss what fixes are, what they do, how to get them, and how to update IBM i. We'll also discuss how to find out if your IBM i has out of date or even defective PTFs. We'll also help you determine what PTF strategy is the one for you and your system.
