RE: 6501 IOP

["Goins, Kirk : CO IR" <KGoins@xxxxxxx>]

I checked the SALES MANUAL CD, It shows V2R2++ as supporting the 6501. I
then went to IBM's website that has PTF info and the PTF doc listed for
V2R2 was MF98220. Here's a clip

I did find a couple of PTF listed for PROBLEMS with 6501 on V2R2 in this
doc. I don't know how functional the 6501 was at 2.2.0 whether it
supported both DASD and/or TAPE and what types of each. AS I TYPE IT
DAWNED ON ME... IBM issued a set of PTF by special feature code FC198x
for this IOP. I remember FC1982, 1984, 1985? and 1986. The show up as
RExxxxxx under 5xxx999 PTFs

Hope this helps

I'm trying to install a 6501 IOP on my F45, which is at v2r2, cum. level
93047.  The AS/400 has not recognized either card the vendor has tried.
I think I need a ptf.  Is that the case?  How do I find out which one?

Thanks,
