Hi - I don't see anything new or different here. When you acquire your portable software instance, you'll need enough space to hold the order. Just like the old RECEIVE job needed in CustomPac. Why couldn't you use the same zFS? I'm not sure I see the value of keeping a separate directory for each ISV.
Here, we have a zFS data set that is a full 3390-27, and is mounted at a location we call the /nts Everything that we acquire electronically goes there: portable software instances and PTFs from RECEIVE ORDER. We tidy it up with a DELETEPKG for PTFs, since we do RECEIVE ORDER very frequently. -Marna WALLE z/OS System Installation and Upgrade IBM Poughkeepsie ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
