3. ODWEK requiring a RACF change.
For now, read the README at the link below and expect more details in the next quarterly newsletter for CMOD.
This is the text from APAR (PI41677) PTF (UI30119):

****************************************************************
1. Rollup Multiplatform 9.5.0.3 fixpack.
2. Add support for zEDC.
3. Add support to ODF to allow customers to specify a wildcard
with substring in the sql statement. Upon execution ODF will
substitute in the correct portion of the recipient name.
A. The format of the wildcard is:
$ODF_RECIPIENT(start pos:length) where start pos is the number
of the character to start and length is the number
of characters to use.
(start pos:length) is optional
$ODF_RECIPLIST(start pos:length) where start pos is
the number of the character to start and length is the number
characters to use.
(start pos:length) is optional
DOWNLD:
This PTF updates the OnDemand AFP Web Viewer and the IBM
OnDemand Image Web Viewer. These are self-extracting
files. These files should be downloaded in binary to the users
Windows system an run to install the appropriate plug-in.
If the user is running a browser while the installation is in
progress, then the user must stop and restart the browser
before the plugins can be used. The files are located in:
-PathPrefix-usr/lpp/ars/V9R5M0/www/plugins/. For users
installing in the root directory, -PathPrefix- would be "/".
For others, it might be "/SERVICE".
afpplgin.exe - IBM OnDemand AFP Web Viewer
- All languages including DBCS support
afpplgin.zip - IBM OnDemand AFP Web Viewer
- Zip format for all languages include DBCS
imgplgin.exe - IBM OnDemand Image Web Viewer
- All languages
MULTSYS:
This ptf must be applied to all systems which
run a server for the same instance. Running servers
for the same instance at different fixpack levels
may produce anomalous results.
DOCUMENTATION:
OnDemand MP 9.5.0.3 Readme Link is at:
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27046127
ACTION:
If you are using the OnDemand Web Enablement Kit (ODWEK), then
after you apply this PTF, you must delete all of the files from
the Web Enablement Kit cache directory. The directory is
specified by the CacheDir directive in the arswww.ini
file. The deletion should be done when ODWEK is not active.
If _CEE_DLLLOAD_XPCOMPAT=2 was being specified as a WAS
environment variable to circumvent an abend in the ODWEK
servlet, it should be removed as it is no longer necessary.
ACTION:
This SYSMOD changes the way the Java ODWEK API generates docids.
After installation of this SYSMOD, verify that users of the Java
ODWEK API have READ access to the CSFOWH profile in the CSFSERV
class.

Well this is interesting.
The 9.5.0.3 PTF requires the following LE fixes:
PI33378: ADD SUPPORT FOR ENTERPRISE COBOL V5.2
Note: you don't need COBOL V5.2, just the following LE updates:

-------- ------------------- ------- ---- ----- ---------

By the way, you see the requirement for the updated LE when you try to APPLY the PTF for 9.5.0.3.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXBSP1 UNRESOLVED. MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED
FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL IGZXRTN UNRESOLVED. MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED
FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY.
The LE PTFs add those members.

Be sure to read the following doc:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PI41677 (http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PI41677)
It contains info not in the HOLD ACTION within the PTF.

Note this item from the upgrade doc:
Just a reminder when applying service that crosses the 9.5.0.3 boundary:
As part of the rollup, the way docids are formed has been
changed to prevent them from being inadvertently manipulated.
This functionality makes use of the CSNBOWH ICSF callable
service. All users (preferably groups) of these docids need
to have READ access to the CSFOWH profile in the CSFSERV
class. Lack of access will be indicated by ICH408I messages
for CSFOWH CL(CSFSERV ).
This currently impacts users of the Java ODWEK API.
