RE: ptf download confusion

I always select to download via FTP. Immediate over the internet has a
limit and until that is selected and built, you don't know if you exceed
the limit.

On 10/28 did a sndptford sf99540 with defaults (*linkonly and format

*savf) from a v5r4 system to download latest cume on a remote system.

I'm fairly certain have downloaded cume on this box before. I know

have done

groups.
It went thru the normal checking which ptfs needed, then started the

big

download. Finished the download hour later, did the PTF opt 8 to load

from *service, and no ptfs found to load.

I checked qibm/... dir and has many mf & si .savf's with date of the

download.

Did a WRKPRB and found the problem generated - answer is PTF's mailed.

Got the cd's today for cume, hiper, DB group.
Question: Is it normal for it to spend an hour downloading ptfs in the

cume (i checked), and then decide to mail them?
