Issue/Introduction

RE: HIPER PTF SO14636  

SO14636 is tagged with "****   HIGH IMPACT NOTIFICATION ALERT   ****  (HIPER) but the PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: pertains specifically to Native VSAM Files, but if the customer does NOT use any Native VSAM files in their environments, is it still urgent to apply this PTF? 

 

 

Environment

Release : 19.0

Component : CA ADS

Resolution

If you have no VSAM files defined to CV at all and no native VSAM then it is not urgent to apply the PTFs but of course they will be PRE for any future PTFs that update the same modules so the PTFs should be applied.
