Re: PTF Steps?

Rob,
Only one suggestion. I don't like to do *IMMDLY because I want the whole Cume to be loaded at the same time. But I understand your issue with dedicated system time being at a premium. In those cases, I would keep it at *DLYALL, but 1 or 2 hours before bringing the system down, I would run the command APYPTF LICPGM(*ALL) APY(*TEMP) DELAYED(*IMMDLY). That would give us the best of both worlds.

1 - They can ALL be done anytime. Change INSTYP to either *DLYALL or *IMMDLY. Why increase your dedicated system time to do that part of the INSPTF? 
2 - See 1.
3 - Yes. Keep in mind, that if you've done the ftp to get the binary in the same ifs directory as your image catalog you can do a ADDIMGCLGE TOFILE(*fromfile) and not have to have the binary in your ifs twice. And, the big kicker, that addimgclge will run like a scalded dog. 4 - I make 3 image catalogs for ptf's: CUME, all groups, and one called MISC. I do 
ADDIMGCLGE IMGCLG(CUME) TOFILE(*FROMFILE) (repeat as necessary)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(CUME) DEV(OPTVRT01)
INSPTF LICPGM((*ALL)) DEV(OPTVRT01) INSTYP(*DLYALL)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(CUME) DEV(OPTVRT01) OPTION(*UNLOAD)
ADDIMGCLGE IMGCLG(GROUP) TOFILE(*FROMFILE) (repeat as necessary)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(GROUP) DEV(OPTVRT01)
INSPTF LICPGM((*ALL)) DEV(OPTVRT01) INSTYP(*DLYALL)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(GROUP) DEV(OPTVRT01) OPTION(*UNLOAD)
ADDIMGCLGE IMGCLG(MISC) TOFILE(*FROMFILE) (repeat as necessary)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(MISC) DEV(OPTVRT01)
INSPTF LICPGM((*ALL)) DEV(OPTVRT01) INSTYP(*DLYALL)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(MISC) DEV(OPTVRT01) OPTION(*UNLOAD)
Followed by a lot of RMVIMGCLGE's.

Wait until the weekend.  IPL.
I also put all the steps in the email to download the data in a script file. See also II-B at
