Re: PTF Search down?

Actually I copied one link too deep. Try this one:

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1021943

This one gives you release choice. Once a releases is selected you get them by date. Id does seem a little odd though that NO PTF has been released in April for i 6.1 or up. So either they're taking it easy in April or those links are not automatically and continuously updated.

Larry,

Would you agree that Cover Letters by release is actually Cover Letters by release by date.
When viewing this link, I think one could find PTFs by date, with a little scrolling.

<Cover letters by release is also working but is that masssssively long very white space list.

I have had minor success with pummelation of appropriate individuals.

SOME links have come back to life albeit in a somewhat different view.

PTF Group levels by release works OK now. It was HORRIBLE and suuuuuuper long with tons of white space. Now it's a list again although sans twistys so be careful as all releases are listed in a single list.

Cover letters by release is also working but is that masssssively long very white space list.

The list of APARs is back as well.

I opened a PMR on this.

Update from IBM PTF SME.

The 'www-912' server has been discontinued.
Alternatives for some of the lost function are being considered. But
as of now there is no time line for when any of the lost function will
be reinstated.
The server is not supported by the support center. So we do not have
much information regarding what the alternatives will be or when they
might be implemented.

Actually the old PTF listing that everyone knew and loved was in a

I just checked it out thinking it can't be THAT bad. But.. it is.. ugh.

I tried a simple search and it gave me a list of.. I don't know what.
Then I saw that box "Check here to search withing the search results..."

What was the original search?

Why oh why IBM..... I see they're trying to make it the same layout
as the rest of the new pages.. I think I preferred the old Net.data
search pages... lol
