Resolution

The problem was caused by applying together PTF LU09137 and LU09346 which is now PEd. In this case a separate APPLY for PTF LU09137 was run successfully and then the original APPLY was run to install all the other PTFs.  Another option is to simply rerun the original APPLY with GROUPEXTEND and EXCLUDE(LU09346).

 

The PTF that corrected the PE PTF LU09346 was PTF LU09567.
