SYSTEM SHUTDOWN STARTED
...
► Your z/VM system should come back in a few minutes. When the system comes back up,
start a 3270 session to MAINT and again query the status of the PTF:
==> service cp status um32811
VMFSRV2760I SERVICE processing started
VMFSRV1226I CP (6VMCPR10%CP) PTF UM32811 status:
VMFSRV1226I RECEIVED 12/15/09 13:41:36
VMFSRV1226I APPLIED 12/15/09 13:41:37
VMFSRV1226I BUILT 12/15/09 13:42:14
VMFSRV1226I PUT2PROD 12/15/09 13:47:59
VMFSRV2760I SERVICE processing completed successfully
This shows that the PTF has been successfully applied.
5.4.6 Checking for APARMEMO files
5.5 Moving on
After you have applied PTFs, you should check for files with a file type of APARMEMO on the
MAINT 500 disk. These files may have additional instructions on work to do after the PTFs
have been applied. Perform the following steps:
► Access the MAINT 500 disk as C and list the files with file type APARMEMO:
==> acc 500 c
==> listfile * aparmemo c
6VMCMS10 APARMEMO C1
In this example, there is one APARMEMO file.
► Look at the contents of the file:
==> type 6vmcms10 aparmemo c
APAR MEMOS 01/26/10.12:50:20
=================================
THE FOLLOWING MEMOS WERE INCLUDED WITH THE PTFS SHIPPED:
NONE.
In this example the APARMEMO file was created, but no additional memorandums are present.
You will not see any new information in the APARMEMO file if you have not done SERVICE against
the documentation SERVLINK file. This is because the MEMO file is in the
documentation SERVLINK file.
You should now be done installing, configuring and servicing z/VM. A great attribute of z/VM
is that it normally hums along with little maintenance required. It is now time to change your
focus to Linux.
