THAT makes a lot of sense and makes me feel better. Thanks for the
detailed explanation.

Dave,

This is normal and correct if the following was done.

When you do the "Save" it backs up everything that has changed since
the last Installation from the Recovery Media (DVD). Think of this as
"like" a SAVCHGOBJ on i5/OS of the operating system. Now I am assuming
that
you used Recovery Media to upgrade from 7.3.2 to 7.3.4, and then loaded
the
latest HMC ptf MH001152. Therefore the only code that was backed up was
the
stuff after the DVD Recovery Media installation, which would have been
MH001152.

So in order to recover, you would use your DVD Recover Media to
install the new base HMC code and then restore your backup and you would
be
back. When you put on the next "Corrective Service" the backup will
take
longer, and when you put the following one on it will take even a little
longer, etc. Until you do your next installation using the Recovery
Media,
and then it will get small again.
