RE: image catalog problem on V7R1 SF99710 -- MIDRANGE-L

Rob,

Maybe I asked the wrong question.
Can you have all the latest code contained in the latest resave, (ordered from MF PTFs), but the resave marker PTF is old because a resave wasn't ordered.

Paul,

Did you really want to know how to check what level of resave one is at?
Or, were you trying to tell me that people will not bother to chase down a link, such as the one I posted
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1022066
and that I need to put the instructions in the message body? And that is why you had your instructions right below your question?

Rob,

How can one tell what your current resave level is?
V7R1, I'm on latest TR Level -11, latest CUM, 17192.
The marker PTF for the resave is old- RE13015

It was latest slip from last week.

IBM hasn't generated a new resave for IBM i 7.1 since May of 2016.

I didn't ask when you downloaded it, put it on, etc. I asked what level
of resave it was.
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1022066

But if your point is that you downloaded it just last week from ESS then
you're "probably" at the latest resave. However, I follow the "trust, but
verify" mentality.

I would think a recent resave would have most of those image catalog
issues beat into submission. If you are on a more recent resave then

you

might want to open a ticket with IBM. The usual questions:
When you FTP'd the file to your IBM i did you use binary?
Then I would:
SIGNOFF
Sign back on.
CHGJOB LOG(4 00 *SECLVL) LOGCLPGM(*YES)
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(MYIMGCLG) OPTION(*UNLOAD)
RMVIMGCLGE IMGCLG(MYIMGCLG) IMGCLGIDX(1) KEEP(*YES)
- Repeat until all image catalog entries are removed.
CALL QVOIFIMG PARM('MYIMGCLG '*ALL ')
LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(MYIMGCLG) OPTION(*LOAD) DEV(MYVRTOPT)
VFYIMGCLG IMGCLG(MYIMGCLG) TYPE(*PTF)
INSPTF LICPGM((*ALL)) DEV(MYVRTOPT) INSTYP(*DLYALL)
DSPJOBLOG OUTPUT(*PRINT)
Use the printer output option on the latest IBM i Access Client

solutions

to get that joblog to your PC
Attach that to the PMR when you first open it.

As part of my V7R3 upgrade of 4 partitions, I slip installed V7R1 on a
partition.

I want to apply the latest CUM. I had downloaded and created and image
catalog on one partition already. It loaded and verified fine.

I FTP'd the files to the latest Slip'ed partition, try to load it,
file SF99701_1.bin goes to error.

OK, FTP it again. Same thing.

Tried doing a CPY to QFILESVR.400, load it, same error.

Is it possible I need a PTF on the partition to fix image catalogs? I've
been googling but the results are mostly about how to use image

catalogs.

I'm going onto fix central next.

Any ideas while I keep searching?

Thanks, Art
