DB2 Service for PTF currency at LICPGM level

Today we have GROUP_PTF_CURRENCY** for PTF groups and it would be equally beneficial to have one for license programs that aren't part of a group.

**http://bit.ly/db2-for-i-services


Use Case:

This would allow us to easily check whether, for example, there are updates for 5733OPS.

    Sorry for my delayed response.

    The proposed resolution only works for Group PTFs. I am interested in individual PTFs for a particular licensed program (i.e. 5733OPS).

    Aaron,
    I think this query provides you this capability.
    Can you please try this out and let me know what you think?
    You can email me directly at forstie@us.ibm.com
    Thanks, Scott
