Re: V5R3 cds

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

A cume will not be as good as reloading that code and then applying the 
new cume.  In fact, systems with Op's console would not even work with 
RSA.  Our BP borrowed our newer RSx version for a company that was going 
to upgrade that weekend and needed a newer version faster than waiting for 
IBM could get it to them.

I forget how you check (DSPPTF?) to see which RSx CD you used.  I assume 
it's one of the MH marker ptf's.

Re:  V5R3 cds






I searched the Knowledge Base and found an interesting article: 
search on "respins" (i guess thats a technical term...)
These are "resaves" of certain cds shipped with the OS. They started 
at level RSA, then RSB, RSC, and now RSD. 
Article does say having a cume updates same info. 
So what IBM has done is give customers (all or some?) updated copies of 
certain install cds.
