Re: Prestart jobs QDASSINIT, QZAINIT, QZDASOINIT failing -- MIDRANGE-L

I don't know whether this question was directed at me, but, if so, certainly
not, and I am not sure why you would have thought that I was. Please be
patient with me - there are many aspects of the AS/400 iSeries that I
understand pretty well, but not everything - I work on a need to know
basis. Certainly on OS/400 and PTF installation I am woefully ignorant
because I haven't done it for so long. So what you, and the others who are
totally familiar with these tasks, take for granted is often totally foreign
to me and I don't always know what you are talking about. For instance, I
have no idea what MF* or SI* ptfs are. I was not sure that I understood
"applicable groups" although I did interpret this correclty.

What astonishes me is that you and the others are willing to spend your time
being so helpful. I know that with your help and my perseverance I will get
there. I really appreciate it.

Many thanks

Did I pi$$ you off or something, because I covered this in one of my
replies. :-)
Order the cume, and any applicable groups. The hiper group and db group
will automatically included in your cume. Granted if your cume is more
than a week or two old getting a newer hiper group is recommended.

Re: Prestart jobs QDASSINIT, QZAINIT, QZDASOINIT failing

Many thanks to everyone for their help.

I have checked the PTFs and can find nothing obviously worng, nothing that
needs applying, done countless IPLs, etc.

I feel that since V5R3 is a mature release and the problems that I have
seem
so basic, that it must be something to do with my installation, so I am
going to reinstall from scratch, download the PTFs again, etc. Because I
have other things to do, this will take me a little while. Perhaps
unnecessary but it may save me time in the long run. I am going to use a
different source media for OS/400.

To ensure that I apply the correct PTFs, do I just need the cume pack or
should I also download the PTFs for individual products? I did the whole
lot last time. I did not use the PTF cds.

Many thanks

Since you have PTF issues that is really the place to start - everything
else is slowing you down from fixing the PTF's. Once they are right you

can

try some of the other suggestions if you still need to.

Apologies if you answered some of this already:

If you do a DSPPTF, do you have products with individual PTF's that show

as

applied/installed, action required or loaded ?

If you have any with action required you may be able to get away with

IPL's

again - if you have already done this it would be worth a crack.

Otherwise is you have PTF's showing as loaded you may have loaded and

not

applied the PTF's in which case you need to run the APYPTF command and

the

IPL to apply them.

What process did you use to load and apply the cume package ? And it is
definitely a cume package, not just PTF CD's right ?

Regards
Evan Harris
