>Where is the APAR database?  Thanks.

Ray - I keep factoids such as these in
      http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts .
You can look in one of the following:

  APARs, PTFs (APAR repository/APAR database):
        http://service.software.ibm.com/cgi-bin/support/rs6000.support/databases
        http://www.ibm.com/support/
        http://www.tivoli.com/asktivoli/cgi-bin/cast.cgi (need userid, password)

I generally use the first one.
