Daniel, The LE shipped with z/VM 5.2.0 consists of the base LE shipped with z/VM 4.4.0 plus all service up through the end of z/VM 5.2.0 development. There used to be a table somewhere that listed where the various minidisks were on the installation DDR. I don't remember where that table is documented though. Sorry. You can have VMSES/E reconstruct the contents of the 49E at the latest level of applied service by issuing from MAINT, the command "VMFBLD PPF 4VMVMQ40 LE ( ALL", sans quotation marks. This will take a while to run as there are a lot of parts to rebuild from scratch.

No DDR backup exists. I do have a DFDSS backup. We have not put any maintenance on 49E (LE) unless it came with the installation. Two questions. 1. How can I tell if any maintenance went on LE with the installation of z/VM 5.2 ? 2. Is there a map of the installation tape to point me to where 49E data exists so I can reload it ?
