The nice thing about the iSeries is that it knows how to apply PTFs! Except if you over-stuff the system, it will sort out whatever PTFs you give it and apply them in the right order. If a mandatory apply *PERM is required, it will automatically insert a 2nd IPL in the IPL to apply the PTFs. Like magic!

And don't be afraid if some PTFs are included in more than one PTF group or the cume + a group. The system 'knows,' and only loads them once.

As far as over-stuffing is concerned- it doesn't seem to mind a Cume package + group PTFs + a few strays that looked interesting all at once.
