I don't know why IBM duplicates the disks, but I have seen it many times.

Also - B_GROUP1_01 shows a RS 710-10 for it's version. All the other disks
show the same versions between the two sets. Only use one set.

Are you going to use an image catalog to do the update?

Yes, that is what my I_BASE_01 disc shows. But I have 2 of them in the
same order and they both show the same thing?

Thanks

Bob,

I am going through the same thing. I have an original order of 7.1
media, and a respin of the the same thing. I have always seen duplicate
disks from IBM, usually I get double of >everything.

Does your I_BASE_01 disk show the following?:

IBM i
5770SS1 R01M00
Licensed Machine Code RS 710-F
I_BASE_01

The first set of disks I have the 710-B version, I believe this refers
to the ReSave of 7.1 with the technology refresh already applied. I
believe that version F is the latest. At least that is >what was sent
when I asked my VAR to order the ReSave of the install disks.

I am preparing for our 7.1 upgrade and going through the discs that I

received at the end of November, and I have what appears to be two
sets of the same thing:

The first set has:

I_Base_01

B_Group_01 thru 05


And the second set:

I_Base_01

B_Group_01 thru 02


The only difference I can see between these two sets of DVDs is on
the
packing lists:

For the B_Group DVDs, the first set shows on the packing list,
feature
code 5817 and the second is feature code 6284.

For the I_Base DVDs, the first packing list reads I_Base_01 licensed
machine code, and the second one reads V7R1 Standard and keyed media.
The both show feature code 5870. Other than that, the physical DVDs
themselves are labeled exactly the same.

Does anyone know what the difference is? Is it an error/duplicate
shipment? Or is the first set the base code, then the second set
licensed programs? If that's the case, do I load all of them into
the
same image catalog, or do I need two different image catalogs then?

Please be gentle with me - it's been over 4 years since I did our 6.1

upgrade!

Thanks
