Re: V7R3 media - image catalogs

Three? Where do you get that number?

The answer is no, you get a lot of files from IBM because many of the various LPPs are on their own 'disk'.

Optionally you can create your own install media with GO LICPGM Option 40 from an existing i 7.3 LPAR. Then you can make media as large as you want and could certainly create only three.

We will be doing some V7R1 to R3 upgrades.

Last we were doing this we had to download tons of .bin files from ESS using http to a PC, truncate the file names, and then ftp them over to the IFS to get them into an image catalog.

Has there been any change in the way ESS delivers V7R3 media to let us get the three primary images with everything we need on it?

Thanks,

Jerry
