Re: Cume & Image Catalogs

Actually, I think when you order the cume via FTP it also comes with the 
hiper and database group.  Ordering that way also gets rid of the chicken 
and egg argument.

From the file ilstCUME.txt in my download:

                                                            Version 
                                                            Release 
PTF#      Reason PTF Listed    Status            Product    Mod Lvl

Then I just load this image catalog all at once.

I order all groups and put them into a different image catalog.  I used to 
pick and choose applicable groups but now I just order them all for my 
version of OS.  With multiple lpar's running different products and God 
knows how many times we add a product after we put on the cume and groups 
and now have to reinstall them.  Having the latest already downloaded 
makes it really easy to reapply.
