Re: Size of cume & groups

[John McKee <jmmckee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Very nice to know.  I was beginning to think upgrading from v5r4 using an
image catalog would not be possible, due to the size you initially saw.
Wit 68 percent used out of 246.1G, that left 76.994.  More than enough, but
by the time I get to the upgrade, that could well change.

I definitely see the advantage of using a respin.
