RE : RE; runrmtcmd and V5R2

Thank you very much Rob, your answer was very helpful.
Unfortunately, the high speed connection in French Polynesia is still
too slow... not enough satellite channels... 8 Kb/s is the best we can
have
Also I'll order the PTF through the traditional way.

Have a good day

If you want to order them via the internet, have a high speed connection

and want to ftp them down you can via:
http://as400service.rochester.ibm.com/p_dir/ptforder.nsf

You can also order them on media from that same site and it will come 
Airborne or whatever is applicable to your geography.

You'll have to have an account.

You can still order them from your iSeries with SNDPTFORD:

The ptf's you'll want to order are:
SF99520 - cume
SF99519 - will send one with cume automatically
SF99502 - will send one with cume automatically
Strongly recommend, and will NOT come with cume automatically, that you 
view the following web site and pick any other groups applicable to your

situation:
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/sline003.NSF/GroupPTFs?OpenView&view=GroupP
TFs


By the way, your business partner is incompetent.  Or 'perhaps there was
a 
miscommunication'.  The last few releases IBM has started to
automatically 
ship a cume, hiper and DB group along with the masters.  However they
were 
separate disks and needed to be applied via GO PTF and didn't just 
magically appear.  IBM may have stopped this policy due to the long
delay 
many customers did in between ordering the media and actually applying
the 
media.  IBM wants you to use a more current cume than one a year or so 
out.

RE : RE : RE : RE : runrmtcmd and V5R2






I confirm, the first PTF I see is RE03212 for the 5722999
You scared me too. We have in plane all our customers from V4R5 to V5R2
(about 30 AS400). This one was the first one.
When we received the CD I noticed there is no PTF inside (for all of
them) but the local IBM agency told me : now all PTF are pre-loaded on
the masters CD... It seems wrong and it doesn't surprise me because
people in the local IBM agency are not really up to date...
Any way if you can explain me how to order a CUM it will be great. I did
that in the past through the AS400 but I think now it is an Internet
procedure...
Sometime it's not so easy to be in Tahiti and keep contact with the real
world... but the weather is sweet...

Much thanks for your help,

Let me see if I understand.

If you do a DSPPTF 5722999 what is the first to appear?

You really scared me with a couple of things.
An 'RE' ptf should never be either the first or the last.  The first 
should be some TL..... ptf's.  For example on ours we have TL03252 at
the 
top and at the bottom (and it's a BIG bottom) we have MF28332.

If your ptf list does not begin with a TL then I strongly suggest that
you 
apply a cume CD NOW!!!!  Do you know how to order a CUME?  If not, we'll

step you through that.

I am not sure if IBM is shipping a cume with OS Upgrades anymore.  Turns

out that numerous people would get the latest release in and stick it on
a 
shelf for a year.  By then the cume was hopelessly out of date.

QTCP user seems ok
If I look the TCP spool file I can't see any spool QRTXC...

For your information there are 2 AS400 (product and backup) and the
result is the same for the both systems. I upgrade the two machines from
V4R5 to V5R2 the same week. May be there is a couple of PTF to apply ?
If I check the last one of 5722999 I can see RE03212
