Permanently applying PTFs for a replacement of the same release

Permanently apply Licensed Internal Code and operating system PTFs by using the following commands as recommended before all installations (the delay option is chosen so you can schedule the IPL).

Note: The primary partition of a logically partitioned server must be handled carefully.
  1. Ensure the secondary partitions are in a normal IPL mode with the system IPL action of IPL.
  2. Ensure the primary partition is a normal IPL mode.
  3. Perform the APYPTF commands on the primary partition.
