Re: Image catalogs

Only IBM's PTF and upgrade CDs will advance automatically to the next volume (essentially what LODIMGCLGE does). If you have a multiple-CD set from a vendor, you usually need to to the advance yourself in WRKIMGCLGE. In the function i wrote for Centerfield there was no way to do this before V5R3. All I was able to do was prompt the user to go to WRKIMGCLGE (or maybe I ran that command - I forget).

Maybe I can't do exactly what you are talking about.  However, I CAN
create an image catalog, add images to it, load the image catalog to a
virtual optical drive and use it using those exact steps, without any use
whatsoever of the WRKIMGCLGE screen.  So I fail to see what I am missing
out on.  Help me out here.

Re: Image catalogs

That will not work.  If you do not have the individual entries in loaded
status, then LODIMGCLG will fail.  Period.

If you want to try this go to WRKIMGCLGE and put all of the entries in
an unloaded status.  Now try LODIMGCLG you will get error CPFBC10, Image
catalog XXX not loaded to device YYY.

What I am trying to accomplish is to load the individual entries from an
unloaded status and then load the catalog image.  Lodimgclg will not do
this.  As of 5.3 they added a command to do this, but I cannot so far
find a way to do this from 5.2.
