It maybe down, but they are very apologetic about it.
Thanks,

But apologies don't "bring home the bacon".
The "call-bot" says to try it again at/after 09:15 EST....

Well it's 9:14 and it still fails.

Down all weekend as near as I can tell. Unacceptable since we (and most other shops) do weekend upgrades. Luckily I didn't run into any issues with a 1.8 roll out to a production LPAR this weekend and didn't need to use IBMLINK. I did try to logon serveral times Saturday evening and Sunday to update a PMR and that is how I know it was down.

Thanks,

Likewise, I have an approaching maintenance window, and last Thursday received an AST notification via email that a CICS APAR I've been waiting on to clear a HOLD that affects about a dozen other PTFs was "changed". I still haven't been able to check if the APAR has closed (last status I was able to see said "INTRAN") and the PTF for it is available, or not.
Meanwhile, time marches on.......
