Hi all, I would like to use a 720 as a backup system for a 520. On the i5, I've done a 'go save 21' to an LTO1 tape. On 720, I started a manual IPL on BASE CD (source option D). I choosed the option to select an alternate installation device. I could select my LTO2 drive shown as a 3580 by the system. But when I started microcode installation from alternate device, the system couldn't find it. I have then installed microcode from the CD. But after that I had the same problem while trying to install OS 5.3 : I could choose my drive, but could not install OS from it. I'm sure microcode and OS are on the LTO1 tape. I could also load some user libraries from it on the same 720. LTO2 drive is connected to the 720 through a 2729 IOA on bus number 2. I have still loaded successfully a whole system on a 820 by using the same way. What's going wrong ? Thanks.
