    PTF Management CL commands do not handle multiple partitions. Note Navigator for i and 57xxARE product both perform this requested function and handle systems management of multiple partitions. In addition, PTFs can be installed from a remote network optical device using GO PTF, option 8 or the Install PTF (INSPTF) command.
