The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
If you have an existing lpar, and you have no idea what the keys were or
if you still have access to download the keys (or software), then a
suggestion may be to do a full system save of the existing lpar. Then you
can use that to create your new lpar.
Pete, isn't there some way he could do that without getting all the
'extra' stuff like user libraries and whatnot? I think that's how folks
like you generate new systems with the ptf's and whatnot already applied.
I am sure you posted the steps somewhere but I can't quite figure out the
search combo to get it down to something reasonable.
Bda or Sean,
If you just get distribution media of 6.1 or 7.1 and fire it up, and you
don't have the keys, then your system will only work for 70 days. Probably
better off to do the other. Before whomever gave you that machine changes
jobs you might want to have them use their company access to go to IBM's
website and get a copy of all keys they are entitled to. If they can do
that they can also download software.
