Re: Save issues on V7R1

["Mark S. Waterbury" <mark.s.waterbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Lucas:

Sounds to me like a bad or missing PTF somewhere...

Have the customer try IPLing on the "A" side, then run the back-ups and 
see if you can save the data ... if so, that indicates some "bad" PTFs 
were applied on the "B" side ...

All the best,

Mark S. Waterbury
