RE: PTF FTP download speed

Thanks Phil. Appreciate the input.
For larger downloads we have done this too.
But generally have had better through-put with FTP, and 8gig didn't seem
like an outrageous transfer size.

We found another way to skin that cat. One quick phone call to IBM Denver
and we have DVDs in two days - no downloads required. We found we were
spending lots of staff time putzing around with downloads. For us, loading
DVDs are fast, reliable and low-tech.

Kind regards,
Phil

I am downloading the latest cume for V7R2 via FTP from IBM.

I have a total of 7 gig to download and have received only 1.7 gig in
about
3 hours.



Why so slow?



I will probably just kick this FTP session off again overnight to get
the last 2 files, but at the current rate it will take another 10
hours to do the entire cume.
