Hi Matt, RSU6304 is the RSU number, not the reported service level. In this case the 4th RSU for zVM 6.3. But indeed RSU6304 is actually the 1501 RSU level and that's the most current one.
Refer to http://www.vm.ibm.com/service/rsu/ to find the latest RSU numbers. You can then follow through to the RSU seervice levels for the various zVM versions. You still might want to order the 1501 RSU from shopz. Not for the current RSU level (you already have that one) but because you can get additional PTFs not found in the RSU. I recently got the 1501 RSU and an additional PTF envelope as well.

Checking on the service level I noticed that the new 6.3 system is at 1501 but my 6.3 install DVD states 6.3 with RSU6304. So I though the 6304 service would have gone on with the install? Question is, do I try to install the service off the DVD or pull from shop zseries? I have searched all over for instructions on how to install the service from the DVD and can't find it anywhere, any help there? thanks Matt -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Alan Altmark Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 2015 12:55 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: zVM/Linux Upgrade On Wednesday, 04/29/2015 at 11:47 EDT, "Dazzo, Matt" <mda...@pch.com> wrote: > Is there a way to get a copy of the 'user direct' to my desk top?

From VM: 1. QUERY ACCESSED C 2. You will see DIR or a virtual device number (<vaddr>) in the Vdev column. 3. If it says DIR, copy the SFS directory name in its entirety and go to step 5. 4. CP QUERY MDISK <vaddr>. Concatenate the last two tokens with a "." in between. 5. In your FTP session, "CD xxxxxx", where xxxxxx is what you came up with in step 3 or 4. Example 1: SFS q accessed b Mode Stat Files Vdev Label/Directory B R/W 573 DIR GPLSRV2:ALTMARKA.TOOLS Ready; In the above case, I would "cd gplsrv2:altmarka.tools". If I am logged into FTP as ALTMARKA, then I can "cd gplsrv2:.tools", just as I could do with the ACCESS command in CMS. Example 2: Minidisk q accessed d Mode Stat Files Vdev Label/Directory D R/O 893 121 TCP592 Ready; q mdisk 121 TargetID Tdev OwnerID Odev ALTMARKA 0121 TCPMAINT 0592 Ready; In this example, I have virtual device 121. If I try to "cd altmarka.121", it will fail since I do not have a 121 mindisk in my directory. This is a disk I VMLINKed after I logged on. QUERY MDISK 121 shows me it is really TCPMAINT's 592 disk. So "cd tcpmaint.592" is what works. If the LINK to that disk had been in my CP directory entry, then I could have done a "cd altmarka.121".
