Re: Update on RDi 9.0.1 download

If you already have installation manager installed, its nice to add you
unzip location to the IM repository so you don't have to specify where
various disks are located in the future.

That should be all you need to get the base RDI 9 installed. I think the
default install options don't even require 3 and 4 if I remember correctly.
You'll also want to eventually find the Rational Key Center and download a
license key if you haven't already.

You're saying I need to unzip these 4 files

1,632,523,109 RDI_V9.0_CORE_PRODUCT_INSTALL_1.zip
1,703,819,507 RDI_V9.0_CORE_PRODUCT_INSTALL_2.zip
1,631,997,661 RDI_V9.0_CORE_PRODUCT_INSTALL_3.zip
1,510,732,307 RDI_V9.0_CORE_PRODUCT_INSTALL_4.zip

to an install directory of my choosing, install from there, and the other
files are unneeded?

Back when 9 came out, someone posted a link that cataloged what each
product did. Basically, you'll want the CORE for your install. the DS_
stuff is probably the optional data studio install. You'll probably need
to update to 9.0.1 after you install the CORE.

OK, this won't format well, but this is what I've got in that folder
after
download:

Why do I need all this? This references Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP, etc. I
don't have any of those, just Windows. And I don't find any instructions
anywhere online on what to do to install. I obviously did something to
install WDSC 7 and the RD whatever versions 7.x and 8.x, but I must be
senile because I don't remember.

That's really good, esp. compared to 22 hours for 1.5 GB!

I do have one extra factor - I was on a Remote Desktop when I started
the download - I'm going to try it direct.

And maybe it was just a bad day - or Centurylink has really sporadic
behavior.

I usually go with the online IBM repository - that has not taken
even
2
hours, as I recall. More like 15-30 minutes at the most.

But getting the entire images? Ridiculous!

There have been long-standing issues also with downloading PTFs -
seems
this has not been addressed.

I think it's the NAS - my download bandwidth is really wide - 50Mb
-
and
it still took until the next day to get both files downloaded.
Maybe we can't be friends anymore.

Or does Centurylink throttle stuff? That's my provider.

I'm getting timeouts galore, so that the download has to resume
where
it
left off. That seems to be what others are getting.
Maybe one of the timeout options needs to be set. I know we can do
both
connection and data timeouts on IBM i, not sure about from my
FileZilla
to
whatever is the server in Boulder or wherever.

I've never had it anywhere near that fast - over various networks

Maybe someone has been "listening in" on this conversation?

Well, to be honest, those times were from work where the
bandwidth
is
managed to some degree. Let me run a quick test here.

Okay, here on my cable modem the large file is 12 minutes. 12
minutes for 1.5GB seems reasonable to me.

Joe

Even your times are pretty sad though Joe don't you think?

I've done similar size downloads from Apple and other companies
and
rarely have to leave it running while I do other stuff.
It just saddens me that IBM who have such a big play on how
important
the web/cloud/etc. are constantly among the worst performers when it
comes
to web site and download performance. I just don't understand it.

And that was both files. The smaller 800MB file took about 75

big
one finished up in another 45 minutes or so.

This was Thursday I think. So maybe I was taking all the
bandwidth. :)

Two hours for me.

I just checked on the download I started yesterday. Let's say
I
started the download at 8am.

2 ZIP files, DISK1 is 1.5 GB, DISK2 is 800MB.

DISK1 finished at 6am THIS morning - 22 hours
DISK2 finished at 5:30pm yesterday - 9.5 hours

Oy!

Or may I say? ENJ-Oy! Oy! Oy!
