Re: Image catalogs

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

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).
