    March 17, 2021 Doug Bidwell

    Hello everyone out there in the IBM i community. There are two important things you need to know about right off the bat. First, there is updated microcode for machine types 9008-22L, 9009-22A, 9009-41A, 9009-42A, 9223-22H, and 9223-42H. You can read all about it at this link. Second, take a look at Security Bulletin: OpenSSL for IBM i is affected by CVE-2021-23840 and CVE-2021-23841. Read more about that at this link here, and the PTFs for this are:

    • For IBM i 7.1: SI75593
    • For IBM i 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4: SI75594

    Here is the rundown of PTF Groups by IBM i release level:

    PTF Groups 7.4:

    • HIPERs
    • MGTools

    PTF Groups 7.3:

    • MGTools

    PTF Groups 7.1:

    Tips/Definitions: Until the pandemic is over, please, be safe! Mask, distance, and wash your hands – can’t hurt, can only help. Thank you!

    The Guide at a glance: There are no new defectives this week (03/13/21). Here is the defective PTF rundown, which is the last defective for each release:

    Integrate Virtual Tape to Automate Your Backups And Strengthen Your Ability To Recover From Cyber Attacks And Disasters

    With most IT departments stretched thin, finding something that can quickly free up IT time is definitely a bonus. That’s why it’s important to stop and take a look at integrating virtual tape into your backup and recovery. Virtual tape is one of those technologies where once you have it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. See a demo and get a $50 gift card.

    But what is it about using virtual tape that makes it so worthwhile? Why is it that so many IBM i shops are already using or considering using virtual tape for all or part of their backup and recovery systems?

    Virtual tape and virtual tape libraries offer a way to both simplify and strengthen backup and recovery operations. By incorporating virtual tape technology, automation of backups becomes possible resulting in hundreds of hours saved annually for IT departments and personnel.

    “We needed to find a replacement that would lower the maintenance cost and reduce complexity of our backup and recovery functions without a major disruption to our operations.” David Fray, Director of Enterprise Systems, ABC Financial

    LaserVault ViTL is a virtual tape and tape library solution developed specifically for use with IBM Power Systems (from AS/400 to iSeries to Power 9s). With ViTL you can:

    • Replace physical tape and tape libraries and eliminate associated delays
    • Automate backup operations, including the ability to purge or archive backups
    • Remotely manage your backups – no need to be onsite with your server
    • Save backups to a dedupe appliance and the cloud
    • Recover your data at lightspeed greatly improving your ability to recover from cyberattacks
    • And so much more

    Sign-up now to see a ViTL online demo and get a $50 Amazon e-gift card when the demo is complete as our way of saying thanks for your time. Plus when you sign-up you’ll receive a free facts comparison sheet on using virtual tape vs tape so you can compare the functionality for yourself.
