ERROR DESCRIPTION:
After loading SF64458, backups start issuing the following
messages:
MSGCPC3701 - 103 objects were saved on volumes 501954 seq 3
etc.
MSGBRM1483 - volume 500240 cannot be used.
MSGCPC3701 - 1 objects were saved on volumes 501954 seq 249
MSGCPC3701 - 199 objects were saved on volumes 501954 500240 seq
250
BRMS then starts to save each library to a new volume.
Another problem that may appear when trying to load SF64458 with
the delayed option. The IPL may hang with a SRCC9002967.
LOCAL FIX:
For the SRCC9002967, do a DPO and IPL the system. Then apply
SF64458 *IMMED using the following commands.
APYPTF LICPGM(5769BR1) SELECT(SF64458) DELAYED(*YES) IPLAPY(*NO)
APYPTF LICPGM(5769BR1) SELECT(SF64458) DELAYED(*NO)
Once again, make sure there is no BRMS activity on the system or
any system in the BRMS network. Sign off and on again after
appling the PTF.
(NOTE: if SF64458 is not been applied, the SRC code SRC9002967
is a normal IPL step to apply PTFs. If the processor is active
allow the IPL to continue)

Parent APAR:
Child APAR list: SA82357
ERROR DESCRIPTION:
THIS APAR WAS SYSROUTED TO R320 SA82357.
The PTF's for APAR SA78215 are defective and can result in the
system hanging at IPL step C900 2967 (SRCC9002967). The status
SRC C900 2967 is indicative of PTF activity and can be displayed
for some time during normal PTF processing. However, in this
case there will be no processor activity (ie no flashing lights)
while this SRC is displayed.
This is due to the system waiting on a message to which the user
cannot respond. The only way to confirm this is the problem is
for the service representative to view the SCPF job log during
the failure. If the message CPA4067 Save file QOHEURO2 already
contains data is in the SCPF job log, then this is the problem.
If this problem occurs, the only recovery is to power down the
system and re-install all of OS/400 and all SS1 options. Then
re-install the cum tape omitting the defective PTF or loading
the fixing PTF which supersedes the defective PTF.
The user should not simply re-install the cum tape. The system
has been compromised by cancelling out of the PTF process and
unpredictable results can occur. You must reload XPF and the
associated SS1 options.
This failure occurs when installing the PTF for APAR SA78215
on a system where the PTF for SA78215 had already been applied.
eg The user had installed a Beta version of V4R4 along with
PTF SF55268. When reinstalling the GA version of V4R4 and the
latest cum which contains SF55268 the system will hang. Or the
user is simply re-intalling GA V4R4 over GA V4R4.
Or the user installed PTF SF55267 at V4R3 and then upgraded to
V4R4. When installing the V4R4 PTF SF55268, the system hangs.
The failure occurs because the savf QOHEURO2 still has data from
the previous time the PTF was installed. This causes the system
to halt with MSGCPA4067 - Save file already contains data.

Contains Data
LOCAL FIX:
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
The Euro Currency symbol is a new symbol used in Europe used for
EuroCurrency (the new, common currency for the European Monetary
Union). This symbol needs to be supported in AS/400.
When installing the PTF for EURO support over a system that's
migrated from an earlier release, with the equivalent PTF on
the earlier release an error occurs stopping the cum package
installation.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
Apply This PTF for EURO support instead of one of the
following:
VRM320 SF55016
VRM410 SF55205
VRM420 SF55265
VRM430 SF55267
VRM440 SF55268

CIRCUMVENTION:
If a customer IPL hangs for a delayed apply of a PTF that this
fix supersedes, the following steps are required for recovery.
1. Power off the system.
2. Reslip the operating system to repair resulting damage to
the MPTFI.
3. Run the folowing command:
RNMOBJ OBJ(QUSRSYS/QOHEURO2) OBJTYPE(*FILE) NEWOBJ(QOHEURO3)
4. The PTF can then be safely applied.

I had the same problem and discovered that I had a damaged BRMS fix
(SF64458)...
I had to force power off, remove this PTF and IPL again!

Subject: C900 2967
9402 720, v4r5mo, applying the latest cum C0294450 & all the group ptf's.
The cum went on first with it's separate IPL & now all the "other" ptf's
are
being applied.
When the instructions say "During the IPL, C9002967 could be displayed for
an extended amount of time. This is normal (assuming the processor light
flashes periodically)." , the instructions are not kidding. I know I have
never waited this long (158.6 minutes & counting) & yes, the processor
light
is flashing periodically. The IPL step is displaying "PTF apply". Is
there
a manual that tells me what the panel codes mean? I do not think the
reference code detail (C900 2967 20 51 0060) has changed since this step
has started & is this okay?
It's 5:35 & I said I would only "be a while". That "be a while" has now
turned into almost 3 hours & I need to get out of here.
