FULL PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
------------------------            
A "FOLD:0653-197" error occurs when attempting to backup the MMFS in the
Japanese version.  From the command line, the user would run SMITTY MMFS.
Select FILE SYSTEM OPERATIONS from the list of options.  From the menu,
choose BACKUP A FILE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION. After filling in the entry fields
for FILE SYSTEM NAME and BACKUP FILENAME, execute the program and the error
will come up.  The problem occurs because the FOLD command cannot handle
cases where the LC_CTYPE=Ja_JP.  The fix was made in /user/sbin/mktsb to
resolve this issue.

FILESETS:   mmfs.base.cmds 2.2.0.2

SUPERSEDED PTFS:
----------------
IY13892 AIX bos.up/bos.mp 4.3.3.25 causes kernel panic in MMFS

After installing bos.up or bos.mp at PTF level 4.3.3.25
(found in maintenance level 5 and higher) on a VideoCharger
datapump machine, MMFS will not start, and will cause the
system to crash with a Kernel PANIC.  System error log
shows a panic string of:
"(desiredSRValue & 0x00FFFFFF) == (currentSRValue & 0x00FFFFFF)".
After installing this PTF, the system must be rebooted in
order for the fix to take effect.
