To create the images from media ADDIMGCLGE.  This is after you create the
image catalog CRTIMGCLG.
CRTIMGCLG --> ADDIMGCLGE --> LODIMGCLG --> load PTF's LODIMGCLG
OPTION(*UNLOAD) --> DLTIMGCLG

I do not think it matters what you name them. Just use the ADDIMGCLGE
command.
I believe it uses the volume name to actually reference the CD image
