Re: V7R2M0 TR ptf requires second IPL

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have not seen this on 7.2, BUT:

One thing I love is the CHGIPLA to STRRSTD(*YES) to bring the system up 
in restricted condition. I have noticed however, that with this set to 
*YES the second (any any additional) IPL needed to handle TR PTFs does 
not occur. This bit me on i 7.1, however since I no longer it set it for 
PTF application I have not see any issues with i 7.2. It likely would 
still be a problem.

Did you have this set to *YES when you did the TR PTF?
