Problems downloading a Service Pack?

Refer to the Software Knowledge Base Article: Problems Downloading Files from the FTP Site, including Client Access Service Packs.

Other methods for acquiring service packs:
Order the PTF to install on your IBM i

  • Use SNDPTFORD to order the PTF and install it on your IBM i. Since the service pack PTFs generally exceed the size limit to be sent electronically, you can receive the PTF on media by changing the "Delivery Method" (DELIVERY) parameter on SNDPTFORD to *ANY. (The parameter defaults to *LINKONLY.)
  • Use Internet PTF Delivery (iPTF). To find out about this service and the requirements, go to //www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/overview?brandind=hardware~systems~system_i  and select "Fixes" under the "Popular Links" header.
