Re: PTF's

<P>If you've got the disk space, and you've never tried to use the image 
catalog method of installing the PTF's, now would be a good time to try it. The 
documentation that comes with the CD's takes you through the process very 
easily. Make sure, however, that you look in the documentation for any PTF's 
that need to be installed and applied prior to loading up the CUME. I found one 
a couple of weeks ago that I had to manually install on a V5R2 box, and it 
needed an IPL to get it permanently installed. Even then, I was able to load up 
the image catalog prior to performing the manual PTF installation. I simply 
re-booted the machine from home to install that one PTF, and then I proceeded 
with working from the image catalog. After that, everything was easy. Pre-load 
your image catalog this week, and dial in from home over the 
weekend.<BR><BR><BR>Paul Nelson<BR>Arbor Solutions, Inc.<BR>708-670-6978

FACE="Monospace,Courier">I was wondering, being that this is a holiday weekend, 
it's a good weekend<BR>to do an IPL in order to apply a CUM, Hipers, and 
Groups. My question is,<BR>would it be ok to load the PTF package(s) today, and 
schedule the IPL for<BR>the weekend? Also, can I load the Hipers and Groups at 
the same time, then<BR>catch it all with one IPL, or should I have an IPL 
between the CUM and the<BR>Hipers/Groups?<BR></FONT><BR><FONT
