Jeffrey, There are errors in that article, though you could say I'm being pedantic, I think they are important: You do not create an IOCDS and then create an IODF, you create an IODF and then potentially create an IOCDS from it, the process as written in the article makes no sense. The IOCDS serves no purpose other than to be loaded at POR. There is no need to create an IOCDS before one ACTIVATEs an IODF. Many (including myself) prefer to ACTIVATE an IODF (in hardware and software) to test that it works properly before writing to the IOCDS. P.S. I hope this email gets to the listserver sometime today, I can't believe how long some of my emails take to get forwarded, the last one was over 15 minutes. I suspect the problem is on this end, our email servers seem to run pretty slow ;-)

See, as soon as I send the question, I find what I need. This article seems to explain it quite well... http://www.zjournal.com/index.cfm?section=article&aid=375# ... and points out a few things I'm missing.
