IBM Identifies Killer Domino V5R1 PTF

by Joe Hertvik

In an urgent email to the Lotus sales channel, the Domino for iSeries management team at IBM recently identified a defective OS/400 V5R1 PTF that will crash Domino systems running on an iSeries or AS/400 server. The rogue PTF is MF27530, and it will crash a Domino system in the following ways:

BCD
  • If Domino is installed with this PTF active, IBM says the system will crash when Domino is used.
  • If Domino is not installed on your system, the PTF causes the system to crash when a customer is installing Domino.
  • According to IBM's email, MF27530 was approved in early January. It is present in the current OS/400 V5R1 resave and should be removed from any V5R1 system running Domino. You may also want to check your system after installing current cumulative tapes to see if the PTF is present. PTFs can be removed from an OS/400 system by using the Remove PTF (RMVPTF) command. If you have any questions on PTF removal, however, check IBM's documentation or contact the PTF experts at DLB Associates for help.
