Thanks Les
You are right. How do we order z/VM and not get z/VM? (rhetorical). I do
not know what went wrong but we ordered it again. The problem with fool
proof methods is that they only account for the fools I guess.

Has anyone order z/VM from ShopZseries?
According to Sue Baloga, it looks like this order consisted of DFSMS
only, which could be a valid VM/SDO order. You can order the z/VM base
system and/or optional licensed products. When anything is ordered
through the VM/SDO,base or LP, the optional product enabling aid is also
shipped.
The installation instructions has two links; one for the operating
system (z/VM System Deliverable) and one for the optional licensed
products (z/VM Licensed Products). If you ordered optional products
only, you should use the second link
Here's what the page looks like:
IBM Systems > System z > z/VM >
Installation Instructions for Electronically Delivered z/VM System
Deliverable and Licensed Products.
For instructions on installing the electronic files (zip) for the z/VM
Operating System go to:
* Installation Instructions for Electronically Delivered z/VM System
Deliverable
For instructions on installing the electronic product envelope (servlink)
files for z/VM Licensed Products go to:
* Installation Instructions for Electronically Delivered z/VM License
Products
If doesn't appear the base operating system (z/VM System Deliverable)
was ordered.
