Re: fed up downloading from Entitled Software

OK, so I've got all the ESS downloads on my IFS and Image Catalog has all
the entries added.
So, the next step in preparing for upgrading v7r1 to v7r3 says to Load the
Image catalog, thusly...

LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(V7R3) DEV(VRTOPT) OPTION(*LOAD)

It still fails with OPT1390 (Error with virtual volume image).
Originally, this was failing on the first entry in the Image Catalog
(I_BASE_01), which led me (and others here) to think
I needed a PTF to correct the issue. Apparently that wasn't the issue
because now I get through the first two entries before a failure.

Work with Image Catalog Entries
System:
Catalog . . : V7R3 Status . . . : Not ready
Type . . . . : Optical Device . . . :
Directory . : /catalog_directory

Type options, press Enter.
1=Add 2=Change 4=Remove 6=Mount 8=Load 9=Unload
10=Initialize volume 12=Work with volume

Opt Index Status Image File Name

So, does this mean there is something wrong with the download of the
B_GROUP1_02 file?
If not, what am I missing here?
If yes, why doesn't the call to QVOIFIMG catch this?
(When I use the ADDIMGCLGE command to load an individual DVD I get a
message that says 'verifying image contents...'
before it says it's loading it. Does the QVOIFIMG not work similarly?)

Should I add each Catalog Image Entry individually instead of the call to
QVOIFIMG?

I'm starting to worry that I have to download each file, add it to the
Image Catalog, try the LODIMGCLG command to see of it's an OK download.

Any suggestions?

Best Regards,

Thomas Garvey

or you have the new open source zip/unzip in V7.3

We've had 7-Zip for PASE available for many years. Runs on V5R3 or later:
