Subject: Re: IBM download site is very slow
IBM was doing some 'significant maintenance' this weekend which they said would make some things completely unavailable shat could certainly be the problem with speed this weekend. Personally I downloaded the latest 7.1 Cume and Technology Group 3 as well as the updates to the HMC for 7.7.3.0 at normal speed (which for me is only 3.0Mb) on Friday night, but as usual YMMV.

I thought I was installing PTFs this weekend. Over the past 12 hours, I only got 4 CDs from IBM. With 19 discs on my list, this isn't going to work. It's not even enough bandwidth to be interesting on my traffic graph.
Over the same link, I'm sending the discs to my other system in less than 7 minutes each. 7*19=133 or 2 hours 13 minutes. I can live with that. I would have had everything Friday night at that speed.
