RC is short for Release Candidate, while GM means Golden Master.
Usually, the last RC is declared to be the GM.

Dumb quick question.
I'm trying to add SP2 to my 64 bit install process.
In mksles9root, the service packs are listed as:
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-GM-CD1.iso
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-GM-CD2.iso
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-GM-CD3.iso
However, as just downloaded from Novell/Suse...where ever, the images
are:
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-RC4a-CD1.iso
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-RC4a-CD2.iso
SLES-9-SP-2-s390x-RC4a-CD3.iso
Fine, looks like a simple rename process. But, in systems, sometimes
things are not as easy as they look.
Are the RC4a images, the right images?
What are the GM images?
Which images should I be using?
Is it just as simple as rename them (in the proc or the actual iso
images themselves)?
What is the difference?
Is one set, a valid licensed set (for those of us with support
contracts) and the other, being the evaluation set?
Thanks
