RE: Image catalog after upgrade -- MIDRANGE-L

Thanks Rob and Charles,

I have a proposal on the owners desk for a Power8 so that is where my playing will be done.

Power8, 7.3.....Dare I dream that big?

You know, you do have a 70 day try and buy on some of that stuff. This may be a time to load on some of them and give them a try. Of course you have to balance that with:
- Do you have the time to try all the new toys, or would it be better to load them on piecemeal and not burn up the 70 days on some other product until you're ready for it?
- If I load them later I will probably have to reapply PTF's to get that LPP up to snuff.
- Do I bother loading something if there's no way I could ever afford it (like DB2 Multisystem)?
- How am I currently doing on disk space?
- Am I saving image catalog space? If so, is that stretching out the length of my saves or eating up an additional tape?

Hi all,

We are on day 3 of being on 7.1. Even loaded ACS and works great!

Any reason to keep the image catalog of the upgrade on the system for a
bit longer?

I have a pile of PTF's on dvd's (didn't have the bandwidth to download)
that I want to load into an image catalog.
There is a group of 8 (C3907632), a group of 2 (C3907630) and another
group of 2 (C6120710).
I can load all of these into the same catalog, right?

Thanks!!!!
