Re: PTFs coming via DVD, not link

Your guess is as good as mine. I don't really want them on DVD, though, I
want them downloaded (except for cume's). And they always have been until
recently. I know I could go online and do it, but it's far less
time-consuming on my part to use the little utility I wrote. Here's the
command, prompted:

Order PSP, Cum, or Group PTFs (ORDPTFPKG)

Type choices, press Enter.

Query the latest cum PTF? . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the PSP information? . . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get defective PTFs list? . . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest cum PTF? . . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest HIPER Group? . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest DB2 Group? . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest Security Group? *NO *YES, *NO
Get recommended TCP/IP fixes? . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest JVA Group? . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest BRS Group? . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest HTTP Group? . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest Print Group? . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get the latest ESA Group? . . . *NO *YES, *NO
Get latest Performance Group? . *NO *YES, *NO
Get latest Tech Refresh Group? *NO *YES, *NO

That probably doesn't format very well, but I just change to *YES the ones I
want, it submits itself to batch, sends me a message for each one it orders,
and then sends me a message when they're all done. What could be easier?
It literally takes less than 10 seconds of my time. Except now I get DVDs
instead of immediate download.

All,

I've got a utility I wrote that orders various groups PTFs in batch via

the

SNDPTFORD command. Some weeks back (it may have coincided with V7R1),

they

started being delivered via DVD the next day instead of being downloaded
immediately and I can't figure out why. The SNDPTFORD command has
DELIVERY(*ANY), but it's ALWAYS said that in my program.

Anyone know where to look to find out why this is? Some system setting
somewhere?

Thanks.
